The “Lieferkettensorgfaltspflichtengesetz” (Supply Chain Act) – this is a particularly complicated word even for Germans, although we are known to be the masters of long and complicated words. But this word, this act was one of the reasons why the German Development Minister, Svenja Schulze (BMZ), and the German Labour Minister, Hubertus Heil, visited Ghana together from 20 to 22 February.


Germany and the whole of Europe are connected through global supply chains with companies in Ghana and in other countries of the global South. Cocoa and coffee are delivered to Europe from here, clothes are produced in Asia and sent to Germany. This results in a responsibility for companies in countries like Germany to ensure that human rights and environmental standards are respected along the supply chains, for example that no children must work in factories or that no toxic and harmful chemicals are used. To enforce this, the German government has passed this law, the Supply Chain Act, and one is soon to follow at the European level. The Ministers Schulze and Heil now came to Ghana to see how the implementation of the new legal regulations can lead to better working and environmental conditions.
