Therefore, it will be discussed throughout the article (I) the concept of due diligence, (ii) how to develop a process of due diligence in the context of human rights, (iii) the development and implementation of due diligence processes and human rights, (iv) limits on the due diligence of companies (V) finally in terms of due diligence, what are the obligations of the state and what is the limit for this.
