Kurzbeschreibung:
To learn more about sweatshops in the garment industry, students can stage their own one-day sweatshop for charity, living through the experience of working in an exploitative garment factory in their own school, just for one day.
The students plan and lead their own project, deciding how to stage the one-day event, what product to manufacture, what rules to abide by (for example, 'no talking', 'no toilet breaks', which is common in the sweatshop world), and how to sell the product they have produced afterwards. All profits from this event go to Labour Behind the Label to support garment workers' struggles for better working conditions in the real world.

Kurzbeschreibung:
Could you keep up with the pressures of working in a sweatshop? Well now you can find out by playing our online game. You are invited to enter the world of a sports merchandise production worker. Your wage will be 3,79 Pounds for a full day’s work. A standard working day here is 12 hours. Work hard and you will be paid your full wage. If you make a mistake you will be punished accordingly.
Drag the pieces of the product on to the correct place on the guide product. You will have to watch your energy levels as the game goes on, and you must buy food and drink in order to keep your energy levels up. There will also be other expenses, such as rent and clothing for your children. Now get to work! Take a specific look at the ‘what’s the story?’ function which gives background facts for game players, the ‘contact the union’ function which allows players to stand up for their rights, and the ‘take action’ function where players can send an action email to Adidas, Nike and Pentland calling for better rights for sportswear and merchandise workers.

Kurzbeschreibung:
This BBC Three series from May 2008 saw six young fashion addicts swap shopping on the high street with working in India's cotton fields and clothes factories. They find out whether they could handle a sewing machine and meet the target of two garments a minute. Discover whether their experience changed their throwaway attitude to clothes shopping.

A follow-up series was made in 2010 called Blood Sweat and Luxuries that once again brought together six young British consumers to experience working alongside the people who make the products sold on the high street.
