The Asia Garment Hub (AGH) is a one-stop shop for sustainability in the garment industry in Asia. 

A joint initiative between German development agency, GIZ, and the International Labor Organisation, AGH features high-quality resources from leading industry organisations and respected voices, bringing together manufacturers, brands, worker and employer organisations, civil society, and multi-stakeholder initiatives.

Now merged with Common Objective, the platform offers an interactive space for engagement, networking, and knowledge-sharing.

Why AGH and CO have joined forces

In 2025, the Asia Garment Hub (AGH) officially joined forces with Common Objective (CO) to promote decent work and environmental progress. This merger brings new opportunities for both platforms and their users. combining the strengths of both platforms, fostering a more dynamic and interactive community dedicated to advancing sustainability and decent work across Asian garment supply chains. 

The new AGH site will harness CO’s technology to catalyse collaboration across the industry and amplify the voices of AGH’s strong, grassroots community, creating a community of practice with more access, more insights and more impact.

Practical resources, knowledge sharing and more

We are delighted to be able to bring this resource to Common Objective (CO) members and to welcome the AGH community to CO. 

CO users will benefit from access to AGH’s valuable resources as well as Asia Garment Hub circles to discuss hot topics and get answers to the most pressing decent work and environmental challenges in fashion supply chains. 

The new platform will provide AGH users with broader access to industry professionals, practical resources, and a dynamic space for knowledge-sharing and networking—all aimed at driving sustainability and advancing decent work practices in the garment sector, both in Asia and globally.

Whether you are a supplier wanting to learn how others have implemented carbon reduction strategies or a brand looking for the latest country statistics or news, or you are simply interested in keeping up with what is happening in the garment in Asia, you will find the Asia Garment Hub a helpful resource.

Asia Garment Hub archive retained

The existing Asia Garment Hub website will be archived and remain accessible as a public resource, but it will no longer be updated. Instead, all new content, resources, and community interactions will be hosted on the Common Objective platform. 

Join the Asia Garment Hub Circle 

We welcome Asia Garment Hub users and anyone interested in the Asian garment sector to explore the new hub and encourage you to join the dedicated AGH Circle on CO, where you can continue to engage in industry discussions and collaborations.
