A participatory process is a sequence of participatory activities (e.g. first filling out a survey, then making proposals, discussing them in face-to-face or virtual meetings, and finally prioritizing them) with the aim of defining and making a decision on a specific topic.
Examples of participatory processes are: a process of electing committee members (where candidatures are first presented, then debated and finally a candidacy is chosen), participatory budgets (where proposals are made, valued economically and voted on with the money available), a strategic planning process, the collaborative drafting of a regulation or norm, the design of an urban space or the production of a public policy plan.

Yes to green and just fashion; no to greenwashed factories harbouring exploitation.
Any fix to the climate and ecological crisis that addresses the natural environment while ignoring the exploitation of workers worldwide is not just and is doomed to fail.
If companies are left to make the decisions about how to address the climate and ecological effects of their businesses they will neglect workers’ rights. Corporate ‘green’ programmes have served to fill the pockets of brands,rather than to benefit workers and the planet. While the environmental impact of production may slightly lessen as a result of corporate environmental initiatives, as long as the objective is to maximise profit, workers’ rights will continue to be violated and the global climate and ecological crisis will continue to worsen.
Green jobs and the circular economy may protect the environment, but will not improve workers’ conditions without a struggle. The movement to a circular economy will bring changes to the way clothes are made and sold, which in turn, will bring changes for workers. New processes such as repair, reuse and recycle can be hazardous and labour intensive, and will require new skills. Existing divides and widespread inequalities, such as those based on geography, class, race and gender, on access to education will also affect access to new jobs and training.
How do you challenge brands and manufacturers that make environmental claims but keep exploiting their workers?
Brands often make bold claims about their environmental impact, but they fail to disclose how poorly they pay workers or treat the environment. How do you challenge their claims? Do you research the brand's history and question their bold claims?
