The Makin Terang program is designed for three years, from 2023 – 2025. The aim of this program is to promote transparency in improving working conditions through social dialogue with data-driven advocacy in Garment, Textile and Footwear factories in Indonesia. Through data-driven advocacy, this program seeks to strengthen the bargaining position of trade unions at the factory level. By increasing the bargaining position of SP/SB at the factory level, it is possible to win the collective bargaining process. That way, improved working conditions can be felt by all workers.
