GoodWeave Label
Certificate Description
The GoodWeave label certifies that no child, forced or bonded labor was used in the making of a certified product in the rug making industry, and that a purchase supports programs that educate children and ensure decent work for adults.
The label is developed by GoodWeave International, formerly known as Rugmark, a network of non-profit organizations dedicated to ending illegal child labour in the rug making industry. Founded in 1994 by children’s rights activist and Nobel Peace Prize winner Kailash Satyarthi, it provides a certification program that allows companies that pass inspection to attach a logo certifying that their product is made without child labour. It is an example of a product-oriented multistakeholder governance group.
