Transparentem transforms industries by allying with workers and communities to uncover abuses in global supply chains and drive labor and environmental justice.

Our in-depth investigations reveal evidence of endemic exploitation—child and forced labor, severe pollution and environmental degradation, and gender-based violence—at all tiers of the supply chain. We then bring our findings to companies, pushing them to play a critical role in the immediate and long-term remediation of abuses at the worksites where they source their products. Through our engagements with brands, policymakers, regulators, investors, and activists, we catalyze fundamental improvements to policy and practice and ensure tangible justice is brought to some of the world’s most marginalized populations.

We are philanthropically funded by foundations and individuals and tax-exempt in the United States under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
