#28 Insights to Rana Plaza: a Bangladeshi perspective
Today seven years ago the most awful accident of the textile industry Rana Plaza in Bangladesh has happened. The incident has shown how irresponsible global textile brands are acting and how important health, safety and social standards are for workers. In this episode we talk to Wahid Soruar, a PhD student and social activist from Bangladesh, who has been involved into direct aid following the accident. In the aftermath he was working for an organization doing compensation payments and has met through that many of the workers who survived the accident and their relatives and is still until today fighting for workers’ rights in Bangladesh. A topic that seems more current than ever before during the latest Covid19 developments.
