Guide
6TH EDITION
Dear caring clothes-wearer,
Thank you SO much for using this
guide to help you make more ethical
shopping decisions.
Your concern for vulnerable and exploited workers
is shared by hundreds of thousands of others in
Australia and New Zealand. Together, we are making
a big difference!
Workers should be protected. Workers deserve to
have safe jobs, that cause no harm to them or the
environment. Workers deserve to work free from the
horrors of modern slavery. By voting with your wallet,
you are doing your bit to stop these atrocities. You
are helping to ensure a safe and full life, for vulnerable
people around the world. Thank you.
The 2019 Ethical Fashion Guide grades more than
400 brands on the strength of their systems to reduce
the risks of slavery, child labour, exploitation, and
environmental degradation in their supply chains.
We pray it helps to strengthen your advocacy for
the poor, vulnerable, and exploited across our
broken world.
Your ethical fashion choices are Baptist World Aid Australia
helping to stop children, women,
and men from being exploited.
Thank you for acting justly!
