%% Under the agreement, Rio Tinto will provide support for the expansion of the DIHR's Human Rights and Business Country Portal, a freely available website that helps businesses identify, assess and address human rights risks in specific countries. The DIHR will also develop bespoke country risk assessments and advice to Rio Tinto on countries in which it operates or plans to operate. %% Tom Albanese, Rio Tinto's chief executive, said, "Rio Tinto's commitment to human rights has always been an integral part of our code of conduct, The Way We Work. While we have done much good work in this area, we need to constantly keep our policy and practices under review to ensure that we continue to improve our performance. Working with experts in the field is an essential part of this and our partnership with the DIHR will provide us with further insight into specific human rights challenges." %% "DIHR aims to promote human rights around the world by engaging with all actors who interact with human rights," said DIHR Director Jonas Christoffersen. "Our partnership with Rio Tinto will allow us to engage with important human rights challenges. This is an opportunity for us to promote human rights in the many countries where Rio Tinto operates as well as in the global mining and metals industry," he added. %%
