Our ‘Viewpoint‘ contribution to the Good Clothes Fair Pay legislative proposal campaign has been published. Building on our Trade Realities research, we explore which countries will benefit the most from the proposal and how, combined with good data, it can help create the long-sought-after ‘level playing field’ for living wages.
Good Clothes Fair Pay is a European Citizens Initiative grassroots campaign calling for living wage legislation across the garment, textile and footwear sector.
The ECI – the European Citizens’ Initiative – is a unique instrument enabling citizens to call directly on the European Commission to propose legislation in an area of EU competence. The campaign must collect at least 1 million signatures from EU citizens. Anyone who is an EU citizen (EU passport or ID holder) can sign, no matter where they live.
Good Clothes, Fair Pay is led by Fashion Revolution and our global network alongside Fair Wear and ASN Bank. Clean Clothes Campaign, World Fair Trade Organisation (WFTO), Fairtrade International and Solidaridad are our key campaign partners. Other supporting organisations include Remake, Anti-Slavery International, AWAJ Foundation, Empowerment Collective, IndustriALL, Asia Floor Wage, Common Objective, Fair Action, The Circle, Global Living Wage Coalition, Wage Indicator, Care International, The Industry We Want, Changing Markets and many more.
