We are very fortunate to meet and work with great people and brands.

MELAWEAR, a german label that is creating fair and organic clothing produced in India, is such a friend.

Mela means "acting together" in Hindi and it stands for the way the people behind the brand are collaborating with their partners: fair, ecological and responsible.

MELAWEAR is a big fan of the work of the founding organisation of Raddis®: the Indian NGO Grameena Vikas Kendram Society for Rural Development (GVK Society). In the difficult "COVID" times the GVK Society was happy to receive financial donations from MELAWEAR to support the small and marginal farmers with basic needs.

The interview gives a good overview of the work of the GVK Society and its regenerative cotton farming practices.
