Project Detail |
The textile industry is a key sector of the economy in many Asian countries and, depending on the country, accounts for up to 80 per cent of export income. Although these countries have very different framework conditions, they face the same challenges: ensuring decent conditions for workers and reducing environmental impacts. To create a socially just and environmentally friendly industry, while at the same time remaining competitive in the long term, production companies, business associations, the relevant ministries, trade unions, civil society and international fashion brands need to intensify their cooperation. Objective Key stakeholders in the Asian textile and clothing industry are cooperating more closely to improve production conditions and reduce the sector’s environmental impact. |
