Africa-Press – Mauritius. <\/strong><\/span>Asos hosted the event yesterday (8 February) in partnership with Anti-Slavery International and local trade union the Confederation des Travailleurs des Secteurs Publique et Priv\u00e9 (CTSP), following the formal opening of the Migrant Resource Centre (MRC) in Mauritius earlier this week.<\/p>\n

The centre opened in 2020, but the formal opening was postponed as a result of Covid-19. It was created as part of a project funded by the Modern Slavery Innovation Fund of the UK Home Office. Since its launch, the MRC has been working to support migrant workers, including by facilitating independent access to remedy.<\/p>\n

Simon Platts, responsible sourcing director at Asos, said: \u201cWe\u2019re incredibly proud to stand with our critical friend Anti-Slavery International, as well as the team at CTSP and migrant workers in Mauritius to officially open the Migrant Resource Centre.<\/p>\n

Since the centre was established over two years ago, it has helped migrant workers on the ground in Mauritius to better understand and realise their fundamental human rights and has been instrumental in directly resolving grievances and holding employers to account.<\/p>\n

Last year, Asos announced the release of new funding for Anti-Slavery International to support the MRC, contributing to the running of the centre and supporting Anti-Slavery International in continuing to provide technical advice, monitoring and learning support to the MRC\u2019s staff.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Asos announced last month that it has agreed a new three-year partnership with Anti-Slavery International to 2025, to support the delivery of its “Fashion with Integrity” programme.<\/p>\n

The strategy, launched last year, is focused on minimising the etailer’s impact on the planet, delivering positive benefits for people who work in fashion and meeting increasing demands from customers for greater choice in responsible fashion.<\/p>\n

Under the new agreement, Anti-Slavery International will advise Asos on the development of the next phase of its modern slavery strategy. This will form a core part of its forthcoming human rights strategy, which is due to be announced by the end of next year.<\/p>\n
