Participatory Factory Mapping Research (PFMR): Planning Phase

Coordinated by BRAC USA, the research project titled “Participatory Factory Mapping Research (PFMR): Planning Phase” was conducted by CED, BRAC University, being the starting point for the Mapped in Bangladesh (MiB) project. The goal of the PFMR was to find an alternative to the prevailing working conditions in the Bangladeshi RMG sector: Develop a mapping scheme that offered access to vital information resulting in the transparency of the RMG supply chain. PFMR shares the objective of supplying robust data to enable better evidence-based decision-making in the RMG sector with the belief that transparency and traceability lead to better long-term outcomes.
