Sewing for the Bundeswehr - Human Rights Violations in Public Procurement
The CIR study shows that in many cases the federal government does not require credible evidence of compliance with human rights when purchasing. A case study on the production of Bundeswehr clothing in Tunisia illustrates what this can lead to: At the time of the investigation, fundamental labour rights such as freedom of association were violated in a factory.
The publication contains the results of a survey of federal authorities, a contextual analysis of the textile industry in Tunisia, the case study on the production of Bundeswehr clothing and the resulting demands of the CIR on the federal government.
