Staff Capacity Building Training on “Technological Transition in the Apparel Sector of Bangladesh and the Necessity of Just Transition for the Workers.”

However, recent rapid technological transitions in this sector are causing job losses due to skill gaps among workers. Additionally, climate change is worsening the situation, leading to increased migration and health risks for workers.

To assess the situation and raise awareness among relevant stakeholders,  Bangladesh Labour Foundation (BLF), with support from Solidaridad Network, has launched a project that will advocate for a Just Transition for those affected workers.

To enhance the capacity of project’s staff and ensure the smooth execution, a day-long staff capacity-building training has been organised on June 25, 2024, at Dhaka.

 

The main theme of this training was “Technological Transition in the Apparel Sector of Bangladesh and the Necessity of Just Transition for the Workers.” BLF has been working to ensure workers adapt to automation and Implementation of a Just Transition. We believe that through this training, our staff become more capable and they will play an effective role in the implementation of a Just Transition.
