Identity & mandate
Who we are
ESG Cooperation Hub is a Hong Kong-based multi-stakeholder platform for responsible business conduct, human rights and environmental due diligence, supply-chain risk prevention, stakeholder dialogue, mediation, remediation, and capacity building.
Mandate
We connect businesses, workers, trade unions, communities, civil society organisations, NGOs, academia, and public institutions to support practical and accountable ESG implementation.
ESG Hub engages in its own name and in line with its public-interest mission. It does not conduct undisclosed client-specific advocacy before EU institutions.

Our method
Proactive Mediation Mechanism (PMM)
PMM is ESG Hub's working method for identifying and addressing supply-chain human rights, labour, and environmental risks before they escalate into legal disputes or public controversies.
Stakeholder engagement
Convene companies, workers, unions, communities, NGOs, and public actors where relevant.
Mediation & negotiation
Use neutral experts, standards, and fact-based discussion to reduce escalation.
Action plan & remediation
Define responsibilities, timelines, corrective actions, and remediation goals.
Monitoring & learning
Track implementation, support capacity building, and extract non-confidential lessons.
Public PMM learning is limited to general methods and aggregated, non-identifying themes. This website does not publish named project teams or real cases, including anonymised case studies. Any separate handling of sensitive materials requires appropriate permissions and safeguards.

Governance & independence
Governance functions and conflict controls
The descriptions below set out governance functions in the published model. They are not a list of verified current officeholders or confirmation that each function has a separate appointed team. Actual incumbents, combined roles, availability and any proposed arrangements must be confirmed for the relevant activity. The privacy contact is identified in the privacy policy.
Board / steering body
Responsible for mission, governance, independence, and strategic oversight.
PMM Secretariat
Manages PMM intake, process integrity, documentation, and follow-up tracking.

Data protection lead
Protects complainants, workers, communities, and sensitive case data.
For each engagement, identify the responsible people and assess whether a conflict calls for disclosure, recusal or replacement before work proceeds. A role description alone does not demonstrate that these controls have been exercised in a particular case.
PMM confidentiality
