Regular readers will know that I have been involved with the work of the Follow the Things project for some time now.
This is a project based at Exeter University, which started with the work of Professor Ian Cook, exploring global supply chains, trade justice and the stories of the things that we own and consume.
One of the associated projects that explores this area is Fashion Revolution Day.
We are approaching the tenth anniversary of the Rana Plaza tragedy on Monday and a pack of materials has been produced to help teachers and students think through its significance and the wider question of 'who made my clothes?'
The education materials can be seen and downloaded at this page.
There are also Top Trumps cards to be made as part of the activity, exploring the impact of globalisation.
Ian Cook writes about using the cards here. Make sure that you are using the most up to date Transparency Index.
We will be using the materials at my school with Year 8 in some format and marking the tenth anniversary of Rana Plaza.
