with guest Andrey Sawchenko, International Justice Mission (IJM)

From the shirts in our closets to the TVs in our living rooms, do you really know where these products came from? Trying to track the supply chain that produced your blender is enough to make your head spin, especially when each piece may have come from a different country. It’s no wonder we feel overwhelmed when trying to figure out if a product has been made under fair working conditions before we buy it.

In this episode, Andrey Sawchenko of International Justice Mission (IJM) delves into the harsh realities of forced labor lurking behind many consumer goods. Despite the intricacies of supply chains, Andrey poses thought-provoking questions that challenge our understanding of ethical consumerism. Join us as we explore how to become more conscious consumers in such a complex world.
