contents Greening the sector: environmental initiatives and tools in the garment sector in Asia Fiona Berry Samantha Sharpe Cristina Martinez-Fernandez The increasing social and environmental impacts of the textile and garment supply chain are well known and have resulted in the development of an array of initiatives, tools and assessment platforms to enhance the sustainability of the sector. There is a great deal of diversity in these initiatives, including differences in their focus, the actors involved, who the beneficiaries are, the longevity of the activities and how they define and measure success. The paper highlights where there might be gaps in the current offerings of initiatives, and what types of initiatives have alignment with MSMEs knowledge and learning needs, as a way to highlight where future attention in developing new or enhanced initiatives might lie. ILO working paper, 52, ILO 10.54394/JRAN5992 DOI https://doi.org/10.54394/JRAN5992; ISBN 9789220353172 publication.encyclopediaEntry
