The questionnaires are generic for any sector and MCRB has published them as a resource for companies and communities conducting their own human rights impact assessments. Sector-specific questions used for oil/gas, tourism and ICT (the three SWIAs undertaken to date) have been removed.

Researchers were also provided with fact sheets highlighting key human rights issues linked to business activities in Myanmar, for example on labour, environment, land, livelihoods, security etc. These factsheets will be published shortly.
