Access to justice and the right to food: the way forward 2015, para. 66
Paragraph
Paragraph text
Transnational campaigns by civil society are also important in developing good practice. For example, Oxfam's "Behind the Brands" campaign called upon TNCs to stop land grabbing. As a result PepsiCo, Coca-Cola and Nestle responded by committing to a "zero tolerance" policy within their supply chains in relation to land grabbing and protecting the land rights of rural and indigenous communities. These are important victories, yet monitoring and proper enforcement by the companies is essential to ensure that these committments are upheld.
