Guide Me Green Ethical Directory
|
|
|
| You can make a difference by just changing the brand of shampoo that you use or the make of jeans that you wear. By buying things made ethically by companies that act ethically we can begin to encourage those companies which don’t exploit labour, animals or the environment.
The Ethical Directory contains links and information for hundred’s of ethical companies and brands and is split into topical categories to make it easier for you to find what you are looking for. The ethical companies and brands are listed alphabetically, A-Z or Z-A to give all the companies a fair exposure.

EQUAL is a trans-national programme which tests new ways to reduce inequality in the labour market. Organisations taking part in EQUAL develop innovative approaches to fight discrimination faced by those in work and those seeking work. Development Partnerships work with and learn from other Member States taking part in the programme. EQUAL mirrors the four key elements of the European Employment Strategy:
- Employability
- Entrepreneurship
- Adaptability
- Equal Opportunities
