#28 Insights to Rana Plaza: a Bangladeshi perspective

Episode von STEP INTO THE FUTURE von MELA · 24. April 2020 · 26 min

Today seven years ago, the most awful accident of the textile industry happened at the building Rana Plaza in Bangladesh. The incident has shown how irresponsible global textile brands are acting and how important health, safety and social standards are for workers. In this episode we talk to Wahid Soruar, a PhD student and social activist from Bangladesh, who has been involved into direct aid following the accident. In the aftermath he was working for an organization doing compensation payments and has met through that many of the workers who survived the accident and their relatives and is still until today fighting for workers’ rights in Bangladesh. A topic that seems more current than ever before during the latest Covid19 developments.
