I don't want products bought and sold on campus to be made in sweatshops or by children. The Worker Rights Consortium is an organisation set up by students to support sweatshop workers in university garment supply chains in claiming their rights. I want [PUT YOUR UNIVERSITY NAME HERE] to sign up to the Worker Rights Consortium and show that they take human rights seriously.
