Foreign businesses looking to establish in the Pacific region should be aware of human rights risks in the communities they look to invest in.

That's according to Amy Sinclair, regional representative for Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific at the Business and Human Rights Resource Centre

The Centre tracks the human rights impacts of companies around the world.

Ms Sinclair spoke to Johnny Blades about the Centre's efforts in the Pacific.
