FEDERAL MINISTRY FOR ECONOMIC COOPERATION AND DEVELOPMENT

The motivation for creating this fund is the increasing interest of European buyers in socially fair and environmentally friendly production of their purchases.

The German government has established a new law requiring German businesses to include this in their supplier’s due diligence. A similar European law is expected to follow. These developments illustrate the subject’s importance for the European market.

The Fund’s mission is to support SMEs in the target region and to strengthen their capabilities and standards to meet the increasing consumer demands.
