ASK - Verité India Supply Chain Symposium - Delhi, India
| On November 18, 2009, ASK and Verité will hold our inaugural India Symposium, examining social and environmental responsibility as a key part of sustainability in supply chains. | |
|
We will explore the key role that social compliance and labor rights play in a broader sustainability agenda, sharing perspectives from international and domestic practitioners of social compliance, labor protections, development, capacity building, sourcing and branding. For over a decade global brands have been pursuing supply chain social and environmental responsibility. Yet labor problems persist, some of them severe.
This one-day Symposium will share concrete approaches to these questions.
