Five best practices

Five cases in garment factories are described in downloadables. Solidaridad invites you to read, question or copy them!

These cases were realized in close co-operation with our partners and the companies involved. We thank them for their participation and endurance and invite them and new partners to work with us on new cases in the future. Hopefully they contribute to the necessary extra steps we have to make!
