Challenges Entered: 
People will interact with a browsable world map displaying the locations of factories making university apparel. The map will also be browsable by entities in the supply chain, which will become visible by mousing a factory icon. Such entities are: the factory, its city, its country, its region, the retailers contracting it, the universities licencing those retailers, and the date the information was submitted. The map will also indicate labor conditions in a given country. A feature will be built that shows the changes over time in the number of factories for a given geographic area. This is extremely important as it would illustrate the race to the bottom.The data will come from: the WRC's Factory Disclosure Database and its Historical Search. They are organized and searchable by the entities in a given supply chain and the dates licenced retailers listed their factories. the International Labor Confederation and the International Trade Union Confederation. Both have good annual reports on labor conditions in many countries.
