I'm not sure, but I think it was in 2011 as well. It makes sense for businesses to have guidelines to protect human rights.

1929, huh? Guess they were a little ahead of their time with those human rights principles. Should've gone with the DeLorean instead of the UN!

1929? Really? I think the UN itself wasn't even around then. B) 2011 has got to be the correct answer.

Hmm, I'm going to go with B) 2011. The UN wouldn't have adopted those principles back in the 1900s, right?
