SAN FRANCISCO – The Initiative for Global Solidarity, a project set up by the German government, has provided around €1 million to the Sustainable Apparel Coalition (SAC) to coordinate a new project on due diligence in global textile supply chains.
The aim of the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) project is to accelerate industry wide convergence around both environmental and social and labour assessment methodologies in the garment and footwear sector. The SAC will collaborate with the Apparel Impact Institute (Aii), ZDHC Implementation Hub and the Social & Labor Convergence Program (SLCP) to deliver the stated outcomes of this new initiative.
