Electronics Watch: opening doors for bottom-up monitoring of factories
Electronics Watch is an independent monitoring organisation that helps public procurers to address the rights and safety of workers in their electronics

allows them to achieve this more effectively than they could on their own.
It does this by offering tools and guidance to buyers and suppliers, and by directly monitoring factories.
