Exploring Nature Series
Lessons Learned from Other Industries in the Fight Against Forced Labor
Lessons Learned from Other Industries in the Fight Against Forced Labor
presented by Design for Freedom by Grace Farms and Pratt Institute
This panel will explore how several industries are farther along in ensuring ethically sourced materials and labor practices than the construction and design industry and what can we learn from them.
How have these sectors successfully added humanitarian criterion to business models by investing in ethically sourced materials to reduce risk and increase long term returns? How can we apply these lessons as we seek to build slave-free buildings?
Hosted by:
Tulay Atak, Associate Professor Adjunct at the School of Architecture | Pratt Institute
Webinar Contributors
Carolyn Shafer, Director of Sustainability for Academic Affairs | Pratt Sustainability Center
Tara St. James, Founder and Designer | Study NY
Kiel Moe, Professor and Gerald Staff Chair of Architecture | McGill University
