How We Challenge Corporate Abuse
Corporate Accountability International's campaigns challenging corporate abuse engage targeted abusive corporations at every level: from coordinated, local grassroots actions to international policy negotiations.
Actions
Corporate Accountability and its members organize a range of ongoing grassroots actions to hold corporations accountable for their abuses.
Shareholders' Meetings
Shareholders' meetings are an important opportunity to hold corporations accountable for dangerous and irresponsible actions. Every year, Corporate Accountability International and its members, allies, religious leaders, and student activists attend meetings to directly engage corporate decision makers, raise necessary visibility and send a strong message to the media about the human and environmental toll of corporate abuse.
Direct Pressure
For more than 30 years, Corporate Accountability and its members have directly challenged corporate abuses that endanger people’s lives, and called some of the world’s largest transnationals to account.Click here to learn more about our work Challening Corporate Control of Water, Big Tobacco and the Corporate Abuse of Our Food.
