Introduzione:
The manufacturing group is an outcome of the Madison Dialogue. The purpose of the group is to develop standards for ethical international manufacturing. The group is diverse and international, representing a wide spectrum of experiences.
It is spearheaded at this point by Amanda Stark, Fair Trade Development of the Rapaport Group and Marc Choyt of Reflective Image, autore di questo blog.
If anyone wishes to learn more about the group or join it, contact me.
In the spirit of transparency, I will be posting on going discussions that occur.
