comments:

Regional garment industry project has been established to implement this plan. The relationship and cooperation with other initiatives, such as, ACT, has to be approached with full consultation and consultation with the ILO constituents. Working level coordination and mutual synergy-conscious cooperation should be strengthened.

title:

3. The ILO should develop and implement a strategy on how to capitalize on the LSGSC purchasing practices study. In addition to planned follow-up research, ILO should consider how it will capitalize on existing partnership with Action Collaboration and Transformation on Living Wages (ACT) and develop other potentially innovative partnerships with organizations engaged in consumer advocacy work and the promotion of good purchasing practices among buyers at the top of global supply chains; possibly also consider partnerships with “sustainable trade” initiatives that link purchasing agreements, support for producer productivity increases, and with producer social compliance improvements. Consideration should be given to existing Better Work “influencing” strategy and Better Work role in strategy.
