 Cool Planet for Teachers


Looking Behind the Logo

Looking Behind the Logo

(Published by Oxfam)
For teachers of 13–17 year olds.

The sportswear industry is geared up to make maximum profits by giving us what we want, when we want it. But that often results in a very unfair deal for the workers in developing countries who make the sportswear. They often work for long hours for appalling pay and in terrible conditions.

Looking Behind the Logo is a role-play activity to help young people learn about this unacceptable situation – its causes and what we can do to change it.
