Health is a human right! – New podcast episode by Kleiderei Radio

On the 10th. December, the Day of Human Rights, is a special episode of Kleiderei Radio. Hosts Anna and Amelie discuss an often overlooked topic with Anthony Raju V. of Cividep (India) and Danardianingtyas Nitya S. of TURC (Indonesia): the health of women workers in the clothing and footwear industry.

The guests impressively describe how patriarchal and economic power structures in the Global South endanger the health of women in production facilities. Unrealistic production goals, daily pressure, humiliation and sexual harassment characterize the daily lives of many workers. The consequence? Mental and physical stress, nutrient deficiencies and risks to sexual and reproductive health.

But there is hope: In conversation with Anna and Amelie, Anthony and Nitya formulate clear demands on citizens, companies and political decision-makers. Your message: Health is a human right!

Listen in and learn how you can contribute to a fairer and healthier future in fashion. The result is from the 10th. December 2024 online.
