Abstract

Global value chains (GVCs) are a powerful vehicle through which multinational enterprises (MNEs) can help address the grand challenges that humanity faces.

We debate the renewed role of public governance to promote social and environmental standards along GVCs and outline policies that governments should adopt to help MNEs and lead firms alter their business model
