BesmaUKYour lives were meaningful and you deserved better. I hope the action arisen from this disaster can prevent something like this ever happening again.
MonicaCosta Ricamay their souls rest. what happened in Rana Plaza was a wake up call for me and my consumption habits, now everytime I buy a garment piece is making sure I do not support anyone who could ever harm their workers like that.
Yolanda WeldringThe NetherlandsToday we mourn again about all the women and girls who lost their lives or were seriously injured due to the unsafe Rana Plaza building and lack of taking responsibility by the owners of the factory. Let’s continue to fight for safe, heathy working conditions for garment industry workers and for a decent pay for them. Never forget Rana Plaza!
Terry RainingerCanadaI am writing in solidarity with Rana Plaza Never Again. My thoughts and prayers are with all those impacted. I urge all manufacturers to sign the accord, to work every day to ensure worker safety. You must guarantee worker safety to ensure the trust of consumers and provide good working conditions, in many cases for women. Rana was a crime that need not have happened, workers were enslaved, this is our collective shame. On April 24 we remember the Rana workers, but also every day we put on a commercial garment and yet cannot guarantee worker safety. Fight on for worker justice!!

Deanna ClarkUSAThere are no words...I know there are many who care, but they don't do anything. I've watched the videos of your survivors with missing limbs and serious conditions. Jesus is weeping over so many Christians who don't even remember to pray for those who work so hard making their clothing, picking the cotton, and now even in the USA, driving 12 hours a day delivering with no day off. Our Heavenly Father is just and hears your prayers. Bless each of you who were involved in the Rana Plaza collapse. Deanna
michael conwayIrelandIn regard to the previous message of condolence to to remember the people killed in the Rana Plaza collapse, specifically in regard to the Health and Safety at Work Legislation or "Law" referred to, I respectfully post the following link for study; please see and study; https://www.bing.com/search?q=1974+Health+and+Safety+at+Work+Act&form=ANNNB1&refig=31a151c807d1435
michael conwayIrelandI wish to express most sincere condolences to all the Friends and families of all the workers who were killed people killed in the Rana Plaza collapse. Workers Health and Safety MUST ALWAYS come before either production targets or profits. Put people before profits at all times. The survivors of the Rana Plaza collapse must continue, as part of the international Labour and Trade Union movement, to ensure that workers NEVER AGAIN are placed in such danger by ensuring their places of work are safe places to do this work. Workers or Trade Union Representatives must continue the struggle to ensure that Workers are protected by the Law and this must mean that their places of work are safe and that Government Ministers as well as Employers must both be held accountable if this does not happen. Perhaps the Workers Reps in Bangladesh could learn a lot from Studying the 1974 Health and Safety at Work Act, which mandated in the Coal Industry in Britain for example, "Compulsory 3 to 6 month Workplace Inspections" by both the local Management and the NUM local Representatives, plus similar Legislation on the Statute Book in Ireland as well as in the European Countries, to mention just 3 examples. It is obvious however, in the aftermath of what happened at the Rana Plaza collapse, that Government appointed and approved Architects, should be, by Law obliged to inspect "ALL" buildings where a significant number, of workers are located. What exactly that specific number should be, I am unable to say, but had this type of Legislation been on the Statute Book in Bangladesh in 2013, then obviously that building would have, as it should have, been declared unsafe and thus deemed unfit for purpose and either then, the neccessary structural repairs should have been made, or if this was not professionally considered possible, The Architect responsible for lets say annual inspections, could then, by law, decree that the building must be demolished. Had this happened before 2013, this preventable tragedy would not have happened and this is why fellow comrades and workers in Bangladesh must fight to ensure that this cannot ever occur again in the future.
Kathleen HaldaneUnited KingdomYour deaths and injuries should not have happened.
Gabriele SiniItaliaI urge you to sign the new International Accord to ensure the factories you source from in Bangladesh will be made safe, as well as to make the programme’s inspection, remediation, and complaint mechanism available to workers in other countries. Many of your competitors have signed on and it is high time that you also take responsibility for your workers’ lives.
Cristina Ruiz ArnedoSpainI urge you to sign the new International Accord to ensure the factories you source from in Bangladesh will be made safe, as well as to make the programme’s inspection, remediation, and complaint mechanism available to workers in other countries.

SarahUkDear responsible business owners, it is imperative that the workers who work so hard to keep your product lines running are kept safe and are able to earn a decent living. This is about people's lives at stake. Please take meaningful action that will not only protect your staff, but your brand too. It's unacceptable in this day and age if profit is put before people. Even just raising the prices just little bit of your already cheap goods, would not be noticed by the consumer this end, but would ensure workers in countries like Bangladesh have a better life. The world is changing. Will you be part of the solution? Thank you.

Gerald HarnimanUnited KingdomToo often we forget those who provide our everyday comforts, that there are people who suffer to make the items we take for granted and use for a brief period. It is time that we honoured those who work in unsafe conditions to produce fashion items that we throw away after the fashion cycle changes, also those who then have to deal with the mountains of waste that results. I honour your efforts and will do all that can be done to improve your lives, to highlight the unjust benefits I have from your labour, and to correct this injustice against yourselves.

Every person that work in fashion industry should be treat as equals, should not be any kind of discrimination. No matter the origin, religion, economic situation, color, gender. Does not matter if you are the boss or the employe, everyone deserves to be tratead as the human they are. i am happy to see that out there in every corner in the world, is a person that thinks like me and organizations that does not sleep to revert this. Soon we will win this fight. We wont stop, we wont surrender, until dignity becomes custom.

MarissaCanadaI was 15 years old when the collapse happened. I couldn’t fully process or understand the great losses of that day. Mothers crying out because their children, younger than I, was lost in the debris and rubble. This event in history changed the course of my life and greatly impacted my career goals to bring safety and rights to those most important in industry, which are garment workers. My heart still hurts at the loss and my deepest grievances go out to those who lost their lives and family members. I am committed to change the industry and with all the hope I have I truly believe it will happen.

JefBelgiëIk wil dat alle kledingmerken/-winkels een transparanter beleid voeren. Dit wil zeggen dat zij een zorgplicht opnemen voor de keten waarin de kleding geproduceerd en verhandeld wordt. Meer concreet wil dat zeggen - dat de kleding op een duurzame ecologisch verantwoorde manier geproduceerd wordt. - dat de mensen die de kleding maken een menswaardig inkomen krijgen i.p.v. een hongerloon voor te veel te presteren arbeidsuren - dat zij in veilige en gezonde omstandigheden kunnen werken - dat zij recht hebben op vertegenwoordiging via vakbonden - dat er onafhankelijke internationale controles gebeuren die o.m. een volledige inkijk geven in de productie en de volledige toeleveringsketen van de kleding tot die in de winkels en bij ons consumenten komt Ik wil enkel nog kleding kopen bij merken en winkels die daarvoor erkend zijn o.m. via de Fair Wear Foundation. Ik hoop dat u daarvoor de nodige inspanningen gebeuren en wettelijk verplicht worden.

Liz ParkerUKMy heartfelt condolences go out to the families of the 1,134 people that were killed and injured when Rana Plaza collapsed. I struggle to comprehend the enormity of what happened that day in so many people's lives. Just thinking about how these men and women were ordered back to their workplaces to fulfil orders or risk losing their wages, from the safe distance in the UK, brings me to tears. I cannot imagine how it must feel in Bangladesh. I am also inspired by the compassion that people showed to each other at the time and in the days and months that followed and the commitment of activists in Bangladesh as well as internationally to bring justice and compensation and the Accord. A lot changed under the Accord. It shouldn't stop now. Let's keep fighting to prevent more deaths and injuries in the future. Let's value the lives of garment workers as if they are our family. We would want to know the building our brothers and sisters was working in was safe and not risk their lives when there was a fire. We must never forget.

Daniel AUTARDFranceTotale solidarité des travailleurs français envers les travailleurs du Bangladesh, contre la misère, l'exploitation, le travail forcé, les bas salaires, le harcèlement. Oui à des augmentations de salaires, à une baisse de la durée hebdomadaire du travail, à une protection contre les accidents du travail et contre les maladies professionnelles, pour une sécurité sociale, des syndicats libres, le droit de grève, une retraite pour tous et des congés payés.... Tout ce qui devrait être la norme pour l'ensemble des travailleurs de tous les pays du monde.
BOULIN ChantalFranceI feel very concerned by the Rana Plaza building collapse and the thousands of workers injured ou dead. I think about you every time I buy clothes.
Maria CerveraBelgiumAttention all brands! In my family we are responsible consumers, we paid only fair commerce.

Tola MoeunCambodiaWe stand with all comrades there demanding the brands implement their prolonging promises and we share our sadness with those families affected by the building collapses.
Violeta ZlatevaBulgariaПоклон пред мълчаливите жертви на "демократична Европа и Америка"! Шивачките от целия свят са жестоко експлоатирани от големите мулти-компании, които дори считат, че помагат на бедните държави. Лицемерието е огромно, когато ти кажат "ти имаш много по-нисък стандарт на живот и заслужават само тези пари". Никой, дори и лидери от западния свят, не мислят за достойнството на труда на малкия, обикновен работник. А НИЕ мълчим и палим свещи. ДОКОГА ще бъдем мълчаливи жертви???
Angela BellAustraliaBrands must do more to protect garment workers. We can never seen such a massive industrial disaster or allow the small safety issues to continue. If brands are seeking to move clothes they must include workers rights and safety into their calculations.
Marianna Trevizo-FosterUnited StatesThis event changed my mind on everything we have we have purchased. We are deeply sorry for those that have passed and vow never again.

Alejandro OrtizUnited States#RanaPlazaNeverAgain: Remembering and looking forward. Saturday, April 24th, marked eight years since the Rana Plaza building collapse where 1,134 people lost their lives, and many more were injured. As Bangladesh is currently in lockdown, we created an online place of commemoration where people around the world could safely come together online to mark this day. The website is still open for you to share your thoughts.
BOIVINFranceAll my support in your struggle. "Keep workers safe" Yes it's very important. The multinationales have'nt to make profit on your health. I followed the disaster of Rana Plaza 8 years ago: never again! Greatings!
ChristelUKI stand with you! It should never have happend. I will be supporting you in whatever way possible. I am sorry that you have suffered so much.
L'HostisFranceSolidarity
Janet MorganUnited KingdomI remember with horror this event where so many lives were lost and many injured. Every worker should be safe at work and the garment industry should ensure their staff have a safe working environment. We in richer countries should be prepared to pay more for our clothes and only buy from good employers that value their workers. All workers should join a Trade Union and fight for safe work places. Thinking of you.
David HowarthEnglandWe will never forget their lives❤✊
urbanejaFranceI think of you all and i will pressure in my own way and inform so that the big brands that exploit you take their responsability.
Florence LocufierBelgiqueHi, I am starting sewing myself. I always think about the work of you, women and men. How genius and maervellous are your hands and hart. You are so able to make beautiful things. This is so hard to sew well! I am so sorry you had to work in such conditions and not considered as you should have been. I know the value of your work and I do not see this in the companies you work for. There is another way of making you work, in good conditions for brands with values. They waste your capabilities. I hope you are now in peace.
Jacques Michel THERYFranceSharing the grief of the families and friends of the vicitms I really wish that stong measures be taken so that such dramas will never occur again

Bridget HarrisUKIn response to Rana Plaza over 200 brands signed a contract to commit to improving workplace safety in Bangladesh. This programme has made over 1600 factories safer for 2 million workers. However, brands now no longer want to be held legally accountable for keeping their workers safe and a safety programme is only meaningful if it’s binding. Over 1,134 people died at Rana Plaza. Never again.

Pascal MolineauxColombiaRana Plaza was a tragic consequence of the Fast Fashion business model of externalized costs and careless pursuit of short-term gain, massive production of clothes with huge Environmental and Social costs. Not Sustainable.

I join in grieving their deaths, remembering their lives, and demanding justice for them and their communities. And may flights of angels sing them to their rest.

Centre for Human Rights Law, SOAS University of LondonUnited KingdomThe Centre for Human Rights Law at SOAS University of London remembers both the victims who died at Rana Plaza and the survivors who live with its legacy. The lives lost were not those of faceless links in a global supply chain, but the parents, siblings, children and loved ones of people who, through no fault of their own, continue to bear the consequences of that day. Our sincere condolences continue to go out to the victims' families. We stand in solidarity with those who continue to pursue guaranteed and effective workplace rights and support their efforts to build the capacity of workers, in particular women workers, to enable them to participate in advocacy for change in the fight against systemic injustice.

Cristal WallageCanadaI promise that will not support brands by purchasing their clothing if they don’t commit to making conditions enter for worker please sign the building safety program
Linda XiongUnited StatesI'm am writing to urge policymakers and corporations to ensure that another Rana Plaza is prevented in the future. A garment should not come at the cost of human lives. Corporations should know where their products are coming from and understand the implications of each purchase order. Workers deserve and need safe working conditions. And that is the bare minimum. Corporations in the Global North tout work-life balance and provide safe places for their own workers yet do nothing to ensure the safety of those who make their garments. We have been fighting for workers right since the tragic Triangle Shirtwaist factory fire, only this time, it is outside of the U.S. We must care for our global community!
Ines CalleSpainYou are in our minds and in our hearts. We are with you 💪😘

Rose RodriguezUSAThe greed that caused this disaster is inexcusable. The cracks discovered the day before closed the Bank and shops immediately. The owner knew this building could not hold an industrial complex, so you it was overlooked for money’s sake. The death of over a thousand young ladies and children in nurseries was a horrific event. And to further display your disregard for human life, you refused UN help in rescuing live people who drank their own urine to withstand the heat until May 13th. Your own people meant nothing to you, nothing but a dollar bill.

Katrien Van MechelenLuxembourgTake your responsibilities, companies please!
BryonyUKMy thoughts are with everyone who is still suffering as a result of this appaling incident 8 years ago, which resulted in the loss of so many lives. Brands can not be allowed to move backwards and reduce their commitments to keep workers safe. Without a legally binding agreement, this would undoubtedly be the result. Being held legally responsible for keeping workers safe is the absolute minimum we should expect from them.

We owe it to the victims and to our collective conscious to keep ACCORD and similar efforts live and continuing.

BryonyUKI’m so sorry that the Rana Plaza collapse was able to happen and that so many people have been lost. Sending love and solidarity to the people injured and hurt, to the families of lost loved ones, and to garment workers still facing unjust conditions in Bangladesh today. We need the accord, justice, compensation and for all workers to be able to live lives of dignity for their skilled and invaluable labour.
NishatUKI’m so sorry that our greed in the West has taken so much from you. Thinking of all the souls who were lost in this tragic and inhumane incident.
Maria AlessandraItalyPlease, don't let your memory forget about what happened in a disaster like Rana Plaza. People need to work and be back home to their families, without being afraid of entering a building that is not safe. We pray for all the missing people and the families who suffered while sewing our clothes that we neither use anymore. We can't close our eyes to this, can you?

LauraLithuaniaIn 2013 we had a poll to vote which tragedy touched us the most. The most votes got ceiling collapse in Latvia, Rana Plaza disaster got only 1%. It is because it seems distant and it seems that we are not involved, but we are more involved that we understand. We need to teach people about how we are endangering garment workers and how fashion industry works. We need to remind Rana Plaza disaster every day. We need to understand that it is our fault too. We need to take actions.

Corjan RinkThe NetherlandsWe pray, we ask, we scream that this is not the system we want as humanity. It’s about FAIR work, FAIR price. And as brands you have a big responsibility in creating a new FAIR system. Take that responsibility and don’t make it a marketingstory. Pay FAIR prices. MAKE good fabrics for the workers. Otherwise the responsibility when something goes wrong is high! We need that FAIR world now! RESPECT the life of the workers. As consumers we will fight more for there rights. And you need us. It’s TIME!

Mst Maisha ChowdhuryBangladeshAssalamu Alaikum. I know the struggle of this difficult time is affecting everyone from every level. I believe this trying time should be the time when we realize how crucial "security" is, may that be the certainty of business or certainty of being alive itself. This Corona Virus has mostly affected the rich people. Even a very rich person is not able to buy themselves safety/security of their lives with all their money. Please let us ensure the safety of the people who works for us, even if it means to spend huge money. Keeping money for oneself doesn't guarantee everything in life. Take care.

AdelineFranceLa fin de l'accord signé entre les marques de vêtements et les syndicats du secteur textile au Bangladesh serait une catastrophe. Pourquoi mettre un terme à un dispositif qui a fait ses preuves en sauvant des vies, et qui contribue à une meilleure image des marques de vêtements ? Je n'ai pas envie de porter des T-shirts ou des pantalons dont la fabrication coûte des vies humaines.
Lucy BrillUKThankyou for this opportunity to remember the Rana Plaza tragedy, and remind brands of their responsibility for working conditions right along their supply chains. Homeworkers Worldwide stands in solidarity with the Rana Plaza victims and their families, and with the many other textile and garment workers around the world who suffer as a result of failures in occupational heath and safety, including homeworkers.
SOMOThe NetherlandsSOMO stands with the workers of the Bangladesh garment industry and supports their justified demands to enjoy the fundamental labour right to organise, for safe workplaces and for fair pay. We hold companies accountable for making sure labour rights are protected and respected. Employers in Bangladesh should allow for unions to be established in their factories and engage in good-faith collective bargaining with their labour force. Brands and retailers sourcing from Bangladesh should publicly commit without delay to support a new Bangladesh Accord in line with the demands of Clean Clothes Campaign and international labour unions.
Tansy HoskinsUKOn the eighth anniversary of Rana Plaza, my thoughts, solidarity, and hopes for a better future are with the family and friends of those who died, with the survivors, with the rescue workers, and with everyone in Bangladesh and around the world who continue to work so tirelessly to stop this from ever happening again. In solidarity, Tansy.

GinrNetherlandsMy thoughts are with the families of the victims
FEMNETGermanyFEMNET expresses its solidarity with the families of the killed workers and all those who survived and are still suffering because of their injuries. We deeply feel with you. The collapse could have been avoided if buyers and factory owners had fulfilled their due diligence obligations. The ACCORD created after Rana Plaza was a start for improving the safety of factories but is now again in danger of not being renewed. A second Rana Plaza must be avoided by all means and therefore we need a continuation of the ACCORD. We ill never forget and will continue our fight
Neva NahtigalBelgiumThose who died in Rana Plaza collapse will forever live in our memories as a tragic reminder that no mother should ever have to mourn their child and no child should ever have to grow up without their mother because of someone's ruthless pursuit of profits. I will honour the memory of the victims of this entirely preventable disaster by fighting for workers' rights and safety to the best of my abilities. Rana Plaza never again!
Kristoffer KarlssonSwedenI recognize this
RajuBangladeshFirst of all, I seek the forgiveness of the workers killed in the Rana Plaza incident and extend my condolences to their families. The factory authorities could have prevented this if they had wanted to, but they did not do so and forced the workers to work and pushed them to their deaths. That is why it is better to call this incident a murder of workers. We demand justice for the killings and rehabilitation of the injured workers, including compensation under ILO Convention 121. In the interest of workers' safety, we demand that buyers and brands sign the International Accord. Because workers don't want to see anything like Rana Plaza. #RanaPlazaNeverAgain
Tommie HäggSwedenNot again!
Kalpona AkterBangladeshWe remember all the Sisters and Brothers home we lost in the Rana Plaza collapse. We was a homicide in apparel history, a preventable accident.

Lynn WelchmanUKNever forgotten. Always with us.
Magnus NordgrenSwedenFactory workers’ safety must be first priority!
Marie KvarnströmSwedenIn response to Rana Plaza over 200 brands signed a contract to commit to improving workplace safety in Bangladesh. This programme has made over 1600 factories safer for 2 million workers. However, brands now no longer want to be held legally accountable for keeping their workers safe and a safety programme is only meaningful if it’s binding. Over 1,134 people died at Rana Plaza. Never again.
Clare LissamanEnglandMay we never forget them. And continue to strive for better workplaces and lives for all.
Anneli PerssonSwedenStop using people like slaves. Stop the greed!!!!
Ume Laila AzharPakistanOn this sad day, we remember our brothers and sisters who lost their lives in the tragic incident of Rana Plaza .The disasters, among the worst industrial accidents, highlighted the poor labour conditions faced by workers in the ready-made garment sector in Bangladesh. Millions of people, most of them girls and women, are exposed every day to an unsafe work environment with a high incidence of work-related accidents and deaths, as well as occupational diseases. We demand implementation of labour standards and protection of workers from hazardous conditions including high standards of safe construction.
Jackie SimpkinsUKWe must learn from the horror of the Rana Plaza disaster so that your pain never has to be felt by others. Our sympathies are with everyone who lost loved ones, they must never be forgotten. Never Again!
Astrid KaagNetherlandsAs a member of the Netherlands Trade Union FNV, I never forget Rana Plaza. And the accidents and undecent working conditions in the garment sector in general. Let’s continue the joint fight for better working conditions, health and safety and a living wage. Together, as trade unionists, we stay strong and keep going. I wish the families who have lost their family members in this disaster strength and love.
ThiruvalluvarBelgiumTragic collapse like Rana Plaza could have been avoided. Factories and work places should never be death traps for workers.

Chandni ThaparIndiaI am sorry this happened. I hope we can make the situation better and ensure that none of you have to face this ever again in your life.
IratxeBasque CountryMy memory for the workers and their families who lost their lives in Rana Plaza. Rana Plaza was not an accident, it's an systemic structural problem of garment industry that violates the labor rights of the workers. As consumers, we must demand from brands and governments that this situation doesn't happen again and support the struggles of women workers and unions. We will not forget. #RanaPlazaNeverAgain

চন্দন কুমার দেবাংলাদেশরানা প্লাজা ধসে হাজারো শ্রমিকের মর্মান্তিক মৃত্যু ও কয়েকহাজার শ্রমিকের পঙ্গুত্বের শিকার হওয়ায় শিল্পের ও দেশের সুনাম ভয়াবহ রকমের সংকটে পড়েছিল। পোশাক শ্রমিকদের নিরাপত্তায়, কার্যাদেশ ও শ্রমিক অধিকার নিয়ে দেশীয়,আন্তর্জাতিক শ্রমিক সংগঠন ও শ্রমিক অধিকার নিয়ে কাজ করে এমন এনজিও গুলোর আন্তরিক প্রচেষ্টায় একর্ড সৃষ্টি হয়। দ্রুত পদক্ষেপ নিয়ে সরকার শ্রমিকদের ট্রেড ইউনিয়ন অধিকার ফিরিয়ে দেয়। শ্রম আইন ও বিধিমালা কয়েকদফা সংশোধন করা হয়। রানা প্লাজার ঘটনার পর প্রথম কয়েকবছর শ্রমিকদের নিরাপত্তা নিশ্চিত করতে সকল পক্ষ একযোগে কাজ করে। পরবর্তীতে একর্ড এর কাজে বিভিন্ন মহল থেকে প্রতিবন্ধকতা তৈরি করে আরএসসি করে পক্ষান্তরে শ্রমিকদের ক্ষমতা কেড়ে নেয়া হলো। আজ পোশাক শিল্পের অধিকাংশ ট্রেড ইউনিয়নের মুখ থুবড়ে পড়েছে। রানা প্লাজার পর রেজিষ্ট্রেশন পাওয়া এক হাজারের অধিক ইউনিয়নের মধ্যে আজ হাতে গোনা কয়েকটি ইউনিয়ন সক্রিয়ভাবে কাজ করতে পারছে। বেশিরভাগ ট্রেড ইউনিয়নের মেরুদন্ড ভেঙ্গে দেয়া হয়েছে। ইউনিয়নগুলোর নিয়ন্ত্রণ মালিকদের হাতে চলে গেছে। সেইফটি কমিটি শ্রমিকদের নিরাপত্তা নিশ্চিত করার এখন আর সাহস রাখে না। কোভিডকালীন সময়ে শ্রমিকদের দূর্দশা ও করুন পরিনতি আমাদের আঙ্গুল দিয়ে দেখিয়ে দেয় আজ শ্রমিকরা অভিভাবকহীন। শ্রমিকরা পেটের দায়ে, দেশের অর্থনীতি বাঁচাতে অনিরাপদ পরিস্থিতিতে কাজ করে যাচ্ছে। কাজ হারাচ্ছে হাজার হাজার শ্রমিক। শ্রমিকদের সাথে এই নিষ্ঠুর আচরন বন্ধ হওয়া জরুরী। আমরা আর কখনো রানা প্লাজার ঘটনার পুনরাবৃত্তি চাই না।
Abdul BasitPakistanI am not feeling well,it hurts me every time,no justice delivered,still we are not safe across the globe in garments supply chain...rest in peace
AyeshaUnited StatesOn behalf of a forgetful world, let me say that I am sorry. We will never forget and keep fighting for you.
TiffanyUnited StatesNever again- big brand companies must ensure safe working conditions. Deepest sympathies for lives lost and those bereaved.
Niaraley CamaraFranceThe Rana Plaza collapse is a really sad event that could have been prevented. I don't want to buy clothes that cost the price of many human lives,all people that work in the supply chain,should be respected as human beings and be granted safe work conditions but also paid fairly. We will improve this system,this industry together, so that such a horrendous event don't ever happen again.
Saikat MollikBangladeshRana Plaza! Never again. The Rana Plaza massacre was not just an accident, it was killing, a 'structural killing'. It happened for intentional negligence of the owner and the state also. Is the reason for such state negligence that they are not people, but 'workers' or 'just numbers or digits'? This is the daily question of the workers of Bangladesh yet. Every day they are realizing that this state has lost the ability to fulfill the minimum responsibility of handing over the body, let alone guaranteeing life. We have to set laws for ensuring the guarantee of normal death. The ‘Crocodile's Sleep’ that we sleep, in the structure of 'structural killing' is not humane. The soft pillow, on which we sleep is also not clean; it has the blood of workers, 'deceased workers' blood on our pillow. Only building a new human society can remove those bloodstains. Making a legally accountable and strong agreement with full commitments of 'MAKING SURE GARMENT WORKERS NEVER AGAIN FACE A DISASTER LIKE RANA PLAZA', should be the very minimum and first step. Dear Friends of Rana Plaza, Rest in Peace. We will continue our fight to stop happening any further Rana Plaza.
ValUKDeepest sympathy to all of the families who lost a loved one. Cheap clothing cannot come at the cost of the lives of workers. Improvements in health and safety across the fashion and textile industry are urgently needed.
CaitlinUKWe will never forget the lives lost at Rana Plaza. Lives that should not have been lost. Compassion before Capitalism. Workers rights before corporation wealth.
Anton MarcusSri LankaThe Lessons Of Rana Plaza Are The Need Of The Trade Unions At Plant Level Because There Was A Union Rana Plaza Workers Should Have Been Refused To Work In A Damaged Building. Build Unions To Ensure No More Rana Plaza
Kate LarsenUKWe send Prayers for the families of those who lost loved ones, and that such a tragedy never happens again. To prevent future tragedies, we will advocate for fair, implemented and enforced laws in our countries so that western buyers must do strong human rights due diligence on working conditions, including structural safety, and in collaborations like Accord, with empowered stakeholder representatives of affected people, the worker trade unions and NGOs who keep the candle alight. We will advocate for a level playing field, Transparency, Accountability, fairer buyer purchasing practises, and better prices paid and ontime payment by western brands and buyers so that so we see Safer factories that treat workers ever better being the Only ones rewarded with more business, and so that unless they improve, old unsafe or unethical businesses die out, and business is rewarded to safer, fairer, living wage and more paying workplaces for Bangladeshi and all workers who make our things. Thank you for your courageous Voices.
EvelinSwedenI urge companies to take their responsibility. When money is more important than lives, you have failed humanity. How is it it not your responsibility to keep your workers safe? Stop taking advantage of people in less developed countries who rely on their jobs, its straight up disgusting.
VivienUKHorrified that this happened in the name of cheap fashion. Brands must hear that we, the customers, are appalled. Deepest condolences to the families of the victims
Women's CentreSri LankaWe the members of Women’s Centre Sri Lanka, stands with Bangladesh garment workers & their families on the 08 th anniversary of Rana Plaza Pandemic. On this day we urgently appeal from all brands and suppliers to intervene in providing safe factories for all workers as they have a right for a safe working environment. We should make sure that garment workers never again face a disaster like Rana Plaza! RANA PLAZA NEVER AGAIN!

Christine LamarcheBelgiumFighting with Fashion Revolution to change the fashion industry. Too many lives are beîng destroyed.
SultanaBangladeshI don't want any mother's chest to be empty, I don't want any child to lose her parents. And let it end before any sister dreams. And let there be a resurgence of events that I do not want to see. I want to build industrial establishments in accordance with the building code. Let the proper law be enforced and enforced. Compensation should be given to the workers killed and injured in Rana Plaza.
phyllisusaTo those who suffered unbearable loss in this horrendous tragedy, we offer deep condolences and assure you that you and your loved ones will never be forgotten. You and they remain in our hearts—which ache at the memory, but hold to the hope of a better future for you and all workers, everywhere.

CynthiaCanadaMy condolences to all the families who grieve for a loved one. The brands, the factories, and the fashion community must be held accountable for this kind of disaster and make sure they stop.
Christie Miedemathe NetherlandsThis week my thoughts are with the all those who died or lost their health in this completely preventable disaster, as well as with the families who are mourning loved ones. Rana Plaza can never be forgotten, it can never be allowed happen again.

Ton OonkNetherlandsWe never want a situation like Rana Plaza ever again. Brands and factories must ensure the safety of the workers.
AlexandraEnglandThis was truly devastating. I can not be at peace until brands ensure their clothes do not cost people their lives.
