With policy discussions across the EU and the implementation of new supply chain due diligence laws, there is increased attention on responsible purchasing practices in the garment and footwear sector. Combined with a lack of progress in past years, this creates a renewed urgency for providing companies with inspiration and a framework to support their journey.
During this side session, we will focus on how brands can revise their purchasing practices and the importance of the supplier voice in making these changes. The session will present the necessary steps when embarking on this mission, especially with regards to companies’ Human Rights Due Diligence process. Lastly, you will get first hand insights into how to overcome the barriers that brands are currently facing based on our learnings within the Learning and Implementation Community (LIC)
