Respect-Inside is a corporate conduct label. (It) is the first international site to provide information about the traceability of manufacture of consumer goods and industrial products. Respect-inside is neither an activist approach nor a site which denounces abuse and ranks companies. On the contrary, it is an Internet platform open to all kinds of stakeholders in the economy:

• the transparency, traceability and visibility of the supply chain;
• the measures taken to improve the living conditions of the persons involved in the manufacturing process, from the outset to the finished product.

About:

• On this site, companies present in a neutral and controlled manner:
• general information;
• social actions;
• environmental actions.

about: THE INTERNATIONAL FORUM ON GLOBALIZATION (IFG) is a North-South research and educational institution composed of leading activists, economists, scholars, and researchers providing analyses and critiques on the cultural, social, political, and environmental impacts of economic globalization. Formed in 1994, the IFG came together out of shared concern that the world’s corporate and political leadership was rapidly restructuring global politics and economics on a level that was as historically significant as any period since the Industrial Revolution. Yet there was almost no discussion or even recognition of this new « free market, » or « neoliberal » model, or of the institutions and agreements enforcing this system—the World Trade Organization (WTO), the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the World Bank, the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and other such bureaucracies. In response, the IFG began to stimulate new thinking, joint activity and public education about this rapidly rising economic paradigm. (full text).

The Institute is an outgrowth of the Global Women’s History Project at Westfield State college. It is organized around an educational model that links academic and activist work of women. This work has the potential to transform the way we think and behave. We believe that documenting and archiving the contributions of women in history and current events is often marginalized. We hope that the Global Women’s History Institute will begin to address these lapses and build links between and among women around the world. We anticipate that the Global Women’s History Institute will become a valuable resource, and we encourage your feedback. Links to the Global Women’s History Project, as well as Month Celebrating Women, and the Women’s Studies Program at Westfield State College are highlighted for your convenience. (full text).
