Action research in the garment sector in Southern and Eastern Africa
March 2005
- http://www.cleanclothes.org/


Between 2000 and 2004, labour conditions in garment supply chains in Southern and Eastern Africa have been researched for trade unions and campaigning organizations. Efforts towards concretely improving the labour conditions have been intensified. by connecting research with concrete actions and follow up. SOMO and CSRSC, together with the regional office of the Global Unions Federation in the sector, the International Textile, Garments and Leather Workers Federation (ITGLWF-Africa) and the national garment unions in the different countries, have developed and conducted this research.

The ITGLWF opened an office in the African region in 2000. At the same time SOMO launched a research project in the region connecting research for ITGLWF Africa and national garment unions with prospective actions through the international Clean Clothes Campaign (CCC) and other campaigning organisations that work on improving labour conditions in the garment industry.

The research project started with mapping factory locations and research the working conditions in factories in 5 countries in the Southern Africa region. At the same time the project served to discuss the possibilities of using voluntary Codes of Conduct for improving labour conditions and give input in the regional and national discussions on campaigning and develop material for workers and unions in the region. The project thus linked campaigns - on improving labour conditions through urging the brand names and retailers to take responsibility - to the unions in the Southern African region.
