A new report, Just Climate Transitions in Bangladesh: Accelerating Multistakeholder Action in Textile and Apparel and Construction Industries, examines how Bangladesh can pursue low-carbon growth while protecting workers and sustaining competitiveness.
Bangladesh’s economy expanded 24-fold between 1980 and 2023, while GHG emissions rose 176%. The textile, apparel, and construction sectors—representing 74% of industrial GDP, 80% of the industrial workforce, and around half of industrial emissions—sit at the center of a just transition challenge.
Developed with support from the H&M Foundation and Laudes Foundation, and informed by 100+ local and international stakeholders, the report identifies seven interlinked priorities and calls for coordinated action across industry, workers’ organizations, policymakers, development actors, finance, and philanthropy.
