In June 2019 just-style reported that a new EU-funded project was launching to benefit roughly 17,000 garment workers in Ethiopia by building a more sustainable and transparent clothing value chain.
The project sat inside Ethiopia’s push to grow export apparel while facing buyer pressure on wages, safety, and traceability, so the worker-count target still matters for labor and industry researchers.
Kept as industry and labor archive, the just-style brief dates the mid-2019 launch framing for that transparent garment-chain effort.
