Part IIII: Fibers of Pactics Capsule

Fibers of Pactics is a 4-part capsule series, produced by Population, in which employees and management at Pactics, a unique manufacturer in Siem Reap, share their invaluable perspectives on the manufacturing industry in Cambodia. Throughout this series, we have heard some of the challenges facing the manufacturing industry in Cambodia and what the industry should focus on when looking to the future. We have also gotten insight into the experiences of working in the industry and at Pactics in specific. On the fourth and final part of the Fibers of Pactics Capsule, Dorian van der Mullen and Kelsey Tsuchiyama go deeper into Pactics’ origins, role in the industry, and hopes for the future with Naing (Wave) Vannoeun, Pactics’ Factory Manager and first employee hired over a decade ago, and Piet Holten, Pactics’ Founder and Chairman.

Unspun, is a podcast by Population. Three sustainability experts, Lauren Hill, Danielle Arzaga and Catherine Tedrow unravel what’s holding us back from regeneration and liberation in the fashion and home industries. The world was already at a tipping point when the pandemic hit. Fashion brands cancelled orders, leaving garment workers unpaid. Not long after, the same workers put their lives at risk to make PPE. In the midst of all this, a racial reckoning swept the U.S. triggering the greatest wave of wokewashing the country had ever seen.It may not seem like it, but these problems are all interconnected. On this podcast we look at the whole system—and the people within it—to discover why and what it will take to create change. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
