Textile Trade Flow and Employment Baseline Analysis: Bangladesh

This study—Textile Trade Flow and Employment Baseline Analysis: Bangladesh—aims to shed light on the trade and employment dynamics in Bangladesh as a key upstream trading partner to the EU. This enables a better understanding of the context within which recent EU policies, including the Sustainable and Circular Textiles Strategy, the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR) and the Corporate Due Diligence Directive (CDDD), will take place.

This report is a part of a series which explores both the upstream and downstream aspects of the textiles value chain. The project is led by Circle Economy Foundation, Chatham House and the European Environment Bureau, together with organisations in two trading partner focus countries, BUILD (Bangladesh) and The Or Foundation (Ghana).
