Nike Sweat shop workers


To truely understand what its like to live on less than 1 dollar a day in Indonesia check out this film by Jim Keady, Behind The Swoosh..


Whilst in Indonesia I was lucky enough to meet Dita Sari (featured in this film), Dita was sentenced to 8 years of imprisonment after protesting against
sweat Shops, and released after 4 years due to pressure from Amnesty International.


Dita Sari then set up The Swarna Institute to help workers get better pay and form trade unions, she is
a true inspiration to my work.

Interview coming soon....
