#43 CIVIDEP and Femnet: How is the situation of Indian workers one year after the pandemic?

How is the situation of Indian textile workers one year after the
start of the pandemic and the lockdown in India? How are they
affected by the Indian Labour Law Reforms which provoked a massive
wave of protests? Parvathi Madappa works for the Indian labour
rights organization CIVIDEP and Lea Kress for the German NGO
FEMNET. In collaboration with partners in the Global North, CIVIDEP
seeks to hold brands accountable for rights violations in their
supply chains. For example, CIVIDEP cooperates with the civil
society members of the “Textilbündnis” to improve the situation of
textile workers. Due to the Corona crisis millions of workers lost
their livelihood, that is why CIVIDEP started distributing relief
aid and German partners have set up emergency funds. Everyone who
wants to show solidarity can donate, for instance, via:
