Join the Behind The Label Correspondent Network!

BehindTheLabel.org is a multimedia news magazine and on-line community covering the stories and people of the global clothing industry – the hidden stories of the millions of workers around the world who make our clothes, the people who care how their clothes are made and the multinational corporations behind the labels.

BehindTheLabel.org is looking for articles, opinion pieces, photographs, video, and audio. We are particularly interested in international stories, but welcome the submission of any piece that deals with justice for garment workers

If you are interested in writing for behindthelabel.org, or submitting visual work, please contact : [email protected]

Submitted pieces should be between 750 and 1500 words, and may be edited for clarity and length. While at this time we are unable to offer financial compensation, behindthelabel.org currently receives over 1000 hits a day, so your piece will be seen by a wide audience. If possible, please submit photographs, background information, and tips for action.

Accepted pieces will be a featured article on the front page of the site for approximately 2 weeks, and will be stored in a free and public archive on the site.

BehindTheLabel.org represents the efforts of a global alliance of clothing workers, religious leaders, and students standing up to demand human rights for sweatshop workers. From workers demanding respect and dignity in the Dominican Republic or Thailand, to students protesting on
their behalf at university campuses, to religious leaders speaking out against labor exploitation in their congregations.

BehindTheLabel.org tells the stories of the fight to end sweatshops around the world.
