International women's day on 03/08/2021
Unfortunately, the reality in the production facilities of many globally operating fashion producers looks different. Behind the unclear supply chains are often massive humanrightsviolations - usually even without the knowledge of the client. These include daily violence, threats and sexual assault.
80% of the 75 million people working in the fast fashion industry worldwide are women. So improving working conditions in this industry means doing important work on women's rights.
At LANIUS, we believe that good cooperation is an important factor in the success of unique and high-quality textiles. We work with both large companies and small family businesses. In principle, most of our producers have certificates that ensure the social standards in the company.

Only 15% of union leaders worldwide are women.

64% of Bangladeshi women workers report that they are under tremendous production pressure.
THIS IS WHAT WE ACHIEVE WITH YOUR DONATIONS
The organization FEMNET works together with selected partner organizations in the long term in order to effectively anchor a similar improvement of the living conditions for workers locally. These partner organizations have daily contact with the workers, many of them are even led by former seamstresses. They know firsthand what problems the women are confronted with. Thus, FEMNET's partners develop their project ideas independently. In doing so, they make sure that women in particular receive targeted support, for example through the establishment of women-led trade unions, projects on childcare, sexual harassment or violence.
