Clean Clothes Campaign Ireland

Clean Clothes Campaign Ireland is a coalition of Comhlamh, Global Solidarity Committee, ICTU, Mandate, Re-dress, and Trocaire. It is the newest branch of the Clean Clothes Campaign, an alliance of organisations in 15 European countries dedicated to improving working conditions and supporting empowerment of workers in the global garment and sportswear industries.

Clean Clothes Campaign Ireland is dedicated to supporting garment workers’ efforts worldwide to improve their working conditions, through awareness raising, information provision, and encouraging international solidarity between workers and consumers.

Clean Clothes Campaign Ireland is working together to:

• Raise public awareness by educating and mobilising consumers
• Pressure companies to take responsibility for workers’ rights in the entirety of their supply chains
• Support workers in their struggles for decent working conditions, including speaker tours and urgent appeals
• Campaign for governments to legislate on corporate responsibility and make a solid commitment towards implementing sustainable procurement practices

As a member of the ICTU Global Solidarity Committee, the CWU has committed to support the Clean Clothes Campaign and we hope that the younger members of the Union especially will take up the cause by supporting actions and urgent appeals in the future.
