About this work
The Green Button is a government-backed sustainability certification scheme for the textile and apparel sector, focused on advancing human rights and environmental due diligence within global supply chains. As part of a wider review of the scheme’s standards, assurance and governance framework, support was provided to GIZ to develop a renewed vision and mission, ensuring the scheme remains relevant, credible and impactful within a rapidly evolving sustainability and regulatory landscape.

What we did
A multi-stakeholder process was designed and facilitated, engaging licensed companies, manufacturers, civil society organisations and prospective scheme participants. Using a mix of tools, including stakeholder engagement, surveys, desktop research, a review of comparable schemes and analysis, the process identified key industry challenges, stakeholder priorities and opportunities for differentiation within the sustainability certification landscape. The findings informed a renewed vision and mission for the scheme, together with recommendations to support its future development and strengthen its role in advancing responsible business conduct within global textile supply chains.
The result
The project supported the shaping of a renewed vision and mission for the Green Button. By bringing together diverse stakeholder perspectives, the work strengthened alignment on the scheme’s future role, priorities and value proposition, providing a clear foundation for its next phase of development. All deliverables were completed on time and to a high standard.
