Overview
The Fair Labor Association (FLA) seeks to provide current graduate or advanced undergraduate students of the University of Michigan with internship opportunities to learn about labor and human rights issues and challenges in agricultural and apparel supply chains. The Fair Labor Association Fellowship is supported jointly by U-M President’s Advisory Committee on Labor Standards and Human Rights (PACLSHR) and the Donia Human Rights Center (DHRC) at the University of Michigan.
The FLA brings together business, civil society and universities to learn, share, and collaborate in responsible supply chain practices. The challenges in agricultural supply chains are complex and multi-faceted, and increasingly, investors, consumers, workers, governments, and civil society organizations are demanding that companies not only understand their supply chain, but are accountable to the workers. Universities have historically played a key role in moving the apparel supply chains toward responsible practices at FLA.
Eligibility: U-M graduate student; U-M advanced undergraduate student (at least two years of completed college education);
Students graduating in Spring 2023 are not eligible
