UN Global Compact Networks of the UK and US are organizing a webinar series on child labour in supply chains.
Over the last few decades, the ‘fast fashion’ model has had a deteriorating effect on supply chain conditions. Low wages, forced labour, unhealthy and dangerous working conditions are widespread throughout the garment supply chain and have exacerbated the issue of child labour.
This webinar will discuss sector-specific challenges and examine practical actions business can take to address child labour in the apparel sector. The event is the third installment of a five-part webinar series, and is open and free of charge for all.
This webinar takes place on Zoom on Wednesday 29th of September at 5:45–7 pm Finnish time.
The regulatory frameworks governing corporate actions in the context of sustainability and corporate responsibility issues are evolving rapidly. After a long period mainly shaped by industry self-regulation, companies now face comprehensive expectations, detailed both in soft law standards and – increasingly – hard law.
This webinar will explore how those in the construction industry can embed just transition principles into corporate reporting, aligning with frameworks such as TCFD and CSRD. Speakers will discuss setting measurable goals, improving transparency, and strengthening governance and accountability for long-term impact.
