"To improve conditions in global supply chains, you need to get the most accurate picture possible, putting people at the center. Thus we consider it essential to include the perspective of affected rightsholders and to listen to their grievances. Many of these issues can only be solved through collective action. Sector-wide collaboration between different supply chain actors is therefore imperative"
