81269202-Sustainable Pakistan
The contractor supports the project ‘Improvement of labour, social and environment standards in the Pakistani textile industry’ (Textiles) with nine work packages in two areas.
The project supports selected producers in the Fashion Industry in Punjab (textile, garments, leathers, shoes, sports, and other subsectors) with capacity development measures to link improvements in the area of labour standards with progresses in production processes, and, by this, to indirectly contribute to sustainable growth. A major focus of the services is therefore the support to enhance their competitiveness on global markets.
The two areas for the contractor are:
A. To prepare 5 partner enterprises for the ‘Green button’ certification;
B. To support 15 partner companies in the development of innovate products.
In area A), the work packages include the selection of appropriate partner companies, an assessment of their situation and the according development plan, followed by capacity development, consultancy, and trainings, and the assistance for the certification process.
In area B) the work packages include the selection of appropriate partner companies, an assessment of their situation and the according strategic work plan, followed by capacity development activities and, the participation on an international trade show.

Background and introduction
The textile and garment industry with its big clusters in Punjab is Pakistan's most important branch of the manufacturing industry. It contributes 8.5 % to the gross domestic product and 54 % of exports. Some 15 million people (around 25 % of the workforce) are employed in this sector. As compared to other countries in the region, the productivity in this industry is low.
There is little initiative for green growth. Large amounts of water, chemicals and energy are consumed in production. For the largely informal workforce, working conditions are characterised by low occupational safety, low wages, lack of co-determination and lack of dialogue. The economic potential of women is hardly utilised. There is hardly any governance and enforcement regarding the already weak labour and environmental legislation. The private sector itself is hardly aware of its responsibility with respect to improving working conditions and the associated competitive potential. At the same time, demand from international buyers for sustainably produced textiles is increasing. Pakistan's textile and fashion industry faces a major modernisation process in which sustainable production is a success factor.
Objective
The module presented here aims to orienting the textile and fashion industry towards sustainability to increase productivity and ultimately competitiveness and economic resilience. The aim is to support public and private actors in developing approaches to synergise the economic, environmental, and social dimensions of sustainability in production in the textile and fashion industry.
Approach and Impacts
The methodological approach is based on using of synergies between the social, economic, and ecological sustainability dimensions. Each output therefore comprises measures relating to all three sustainability dimensions.
Output 1 aims to improve cooperation between government and private actors to promote sustainability in production in the textile and fashion industry. The Textile Industry sustainability forum set up by the predecessor project will be used for this purpose. Successful approaches to sustainable production (including digital technologies) will be disseminated in the communities of practice to build networks within stakeholder groups.
Output 2 aims to strengthen the capacities of state actors responsible for compliance with labour and environmental legislation in the industry. With the Labour and Human Resource Department of the Punjab, change processes initiated in the previous project are being continued. Organisational development and the introduction of a quality management system will improve the service delivery of the labour administration. Digital management information systems are being further developed to strengthen monitoring and optimise administrative action and service delivery. Downstream institutions of the Labour and Human Resource Department are being supported in improving labour inspections and oversight and expand service deliver in prevention. The Environmental Protection Department of the Punjab and downstream institutions will be supported in the analysis of environmental risks in production processes and the development of corresponding manuals and consulting services to mitigate these risks. Furthermore, the Environmental Protection Department is supported in developing and piloting new instruments for monitoring resource efficiency.
Output 3 aims to increase the range of services for strengthening sustainable production. Different service providers will be empowered through technical and organisational consulting to develop and implement new services. This includes the development of tools for improved resource efficiency and chemicals management training. In addition, the tried-and-tested change management method dialogue for Sustainability is also being further developed and rolled out on a broad scale.
