Sign petition to Nokia - 31 October 2009
Nokia is asked to become the trailblazer in developing more ethical mobile phones by the Finnish makeITfair campaign. The petition has over 5,000 signatures already, but there is still time to add yours before it is handed over to Nokia on 13 November.
Act now and help us get our voices heard: www.makeitfair.fi/petition.
The manufacture of consumer electronics creates many problems that are shared across the industry. Nokia is the largest mobile phone company in the world, so we the undersigned want Nokia to take the lead in improving conditions in its supply chain. We therefore demand that:
- Nokia trace the minerals in its products to individual mines in conjunction with other manufacturers. Given that mineral trading contributes to the conflict in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Nokia should use its influence to contribute towards bringing peace to the country.
- Nokia adopt an ethical code based on multi-stakeholder participation and external auditing through its supply chain, cooperate with the international free trade union movement and begin negotiations for a global framework agreement.
- Nokia provide full public disclosure of its supply chain.
