In an attempt to change this development, the VINARES project was started in the autumn of 2012 led by researchers from, among other places, Linköping University.
Not all clothing companies are bad
The collapse of a factory in Bangladesh a month ago killed more than 1,100 textile workers, mostly young women, and fuelled an already strong hostility towards the appalling working conditions. But the debate should be more nuanced, and good initiatives should be recognised, says Nandita Farhad, herself from Bangladesh. Boycotting clothes from there is not something she sees as a solution.
