2021<\/strong>,<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>as part of a full week of events,\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>brings together over 600 representatives from government, business, trade unions and civil society<\/strong>\u00a0to address emerging risks and to share learnings on implementing labour, human rights, environmental and integrity due diligence in the sector across geographies.<\/p>\n<p>The topic of building a more resilient and sustainable sector post- and during the current COVID context\u00a0will be key thread running through the first main day of the Forum, including as the theme of the high-level opening panel.\u00a0 As part of that panel we will look at the importance of sectoral dialogue in prioritising collaborative action during the crisis, and lessons from that for building a more resilient sector. \u00a0The second day will open with a discussion on recent mandatory due diligence policy developments with consideration of their role in enhancing and enabling company due diligence practice in the Garment and Footwear sector, as well as potential pitfalls to avoid.<\/p>\n<p>Since its adoption in 2017, the <a

rel=\"noopener\">OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains in the Garment and Footwear Sector<\/a> has become accepted as the landmark framework for due diligence in the sector, supported by 49 governments, aligned with OECD, UN and ILO instruments, and negotiated with business, trade unions and civil society.\u00a0 It provides ambitious but pragmatic guidance to businesses, establishing a common understanding of due diligence in the sector, to help avoid and address the real and potential negative impacts of their activities across global supply chains.<\/p>\n<p>The OECD Forum has set the precedent of pushing the needle by focusing on challenging processes and issues as well as acting as a convenor to help parties address challenges together and pushing for alignment across government jurisdictions and industry initiatives on expectations of business.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 2021\u00a0OECD Garment Forum\u00a0will be hosted by the
