Responsible Cotton Network
The Responsible Cotton Network is an informal multi-stakeholder group that came together to encourage socially responsible sourcing of cotton. Its first point of focus is on the practices of forced and child labor in Uzbekistan. By offering a private, web-based space for sharing information and coordinating independent activities, the Responsible Cotton Network aims to accelerate the transition to a just and sustainable global cotton supply. Network partners include representatives from Foundations, Industry Associations, Investors, Non-Governmental Organizations, and Trade Associations.
