The United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), a UN initiative to encourage business to adopt sustainable and socially responsible policies, has teamed up with the Nordic Initiative Clean and Ethical (NICE).

The collaboration aims to result in a “sector-specific initiative tailored to fit the challenges of the global fashion and textile industries”.

With attention on corporate sustainability constantly increasing, the hope is that the fashion and textile industry can be a leader in pushing toward more sustainable solutions. To accomplish this, the UN and NICE have agreed on the development of the first sector-specific initiative under the Global Compact.
