Community engagement
Beyond striving for safe and equitable working conditions and fair remuneration in our partner factories, we also aim to contribute directly to the development of local communities. Some projects are already underway, and we aim to develop more in the future.
Our projects for the cotton farmer communities
Enabling access to clean, safe, and reliable water is not only key to maintaining people’s health and dignity, it also plays an essential role in many livelihoods, such as small food-related industries. In July 2022, we installed a solar-powered submersible pump to offer reliable, year-round access to safe drinking water to a remote community in India. This project is financially and environmentally sustainable thanks to its use of solar power, and has enhanced quality of life for the whole community.
