This month I wrote an article which I think might be the most important story I've ever written about.

It is about the Dindigul Agreement in Tamil Nadu and how you end gender based violence in the garment industry.

“The Atacama Desert: A Surprising Dumping Ground for Fast Fashion Leftovers
Chile's Atacama Desert, the driest desert in the world, has been a dumping ground for fast fashion leftovers.

Did a podcast interview about the tenth anniversary of Rana Plaza for Sky News and it came out today.
Am pleased with it - they let me say what I wanted to say and didn't edit out the politics.
Please have a listen and a share if you like ▶️ 🎧 It's a good primer on what happened and why.
