Call to Action
ACRATH supports the work of many like-minded organisations both in Australia and globally. Many produce resources that can be used in a variety of settings and some have campaigns underway. Our newsletter hopes to make this call to action a regular feature, encouraging people to find out more and consider becoming involved in actions:
Australian company Ansell, which sells rubber gloves and personal protective equipment, is being sued in the United States. The lawsuit accuses Ansell, and another major brand, of knowingly profiting from the alleged use of forced labour in their supply chains.
ACRATH EO Christine Carolan, is looking for partners who may have shares in Ansell; if you know someone please contact Joseph at the ACRATH office office@acrath.org.au.
