Kurzbeschreibung:
Since the invention of Blockchain technology the main focus was on the impact in the financial industry. In the last years others discovered the unique features of the technology like immutability, transparency and decentralization. Including the supply chain business.
Blockchain technology can bring more transparency to global value- and supply chains and make them more sustainable. With a Blockchain based system all parties in the process can make decisions based on transparent and insured data. Authorities and regulators can automate monitoring compliance with the law and make better use of their resources. Furthermore the technology has the potential to improve living, environmental and economic conditions in developing countries overall. It can help to fight corruption and foster legal security, both fundamental preconditions for prosperity. Because of the promises, GIZ decided to carry out the study and answer the following question:
How can blockchain technology help to improve the social, environmental and economic performance situation in garment supply chains?
