Transparency and traceability are essential if, globally, we are to achieve responsible consumption and production patterns that will enable more countries and regions to transition to a circular economy.

Our solution is The Sustainability Pledge - a series of policy recommendations, guidelines and standards that enable industry actors to authenticate their sustainability claims.

Companies can join The Sustainability Pledge by implementing our toolbox, including opensource blockchain and DNA tracking solutions.



We all want to look good but if we are to be sure that we are making sustainable choices we have to know how, where and who is making our clothes.

See how The Sustainability Pledge from UNECE provides the information we all need to make more sustainable choices, that are good for the environment and for people too.

With access to reliable and verifiable information, we are all empowered to take steps towards a more circular, less wasteful economy.
