Forum on Due Diligence in the Garment and Footwear Sector

Join session

Description

The OECD report “Integrating Responsible Business Conduct in Public Procurement” finds that many public buyers face challenges in integrating RBC objectives in procurement. As part of an RBC and Public Procurement programme, started in 2020, the OECD will run a pilot to support public buyers in understanding and integrating OECD risk-based due diligence in garment and textiles. Lessons from the OECD Garment sector work with the private sector, unions and civil society will help shape the pilot project.
