Garment Production in Malawi
This research continues a series of investigations into conditions in the garment and textile sector in Southern Africa. The impact of trade under dispensations such as the African Growth and Opportunities Act (AGOA) And the Cotinua agreement between the European Union and The Africa, Caribbean and Pacific nations is examined with reference to their role in investment, labour conditions and the social impact of global commodity supply chains. The research has acted as a bridge between Campaigning organisations such as the Clean Clothes Campaign in the North and Trade union formations such as the International Textile Garment and Leather Workers Federation (ITGLWF) Africa, and its affiliates in the garment and textile industry in the south.
