經(jīng)濟(jì)及科技類新聞組照銅獎作品。 時尚受害者? The Fashion Victims 孟加拉國的服裝業(yè)工人是世界上最貧困的產(chǎn)業(yè)工人群體之一，月薪約為14至16美元，為世界最低。孟加拉國約有5000家服裝工廠，共250萬工人，創(chuàng)造了約75%的全國出口額。孟加拉國的服裝產(chǎn)業(yè)工人拿著低于全國基本工資的薪水，忍受著相當(dāng)于一兩百年前歐洲產(chǎn)業(yè)工人的惡劣工作環(huán)境。90%的服裝產(chǎn)業(yè)工人是12歲以上的女童或婦女，她們在工廠受到身體和性虐待的事情已經(jīng)司空見慣。2005年到2010年間，這一產(chǎn)業(yè)的工廠是高危地域，至少172名工人死于工廠火災(zāi)或是建筑倒塌，而絕大多數(shù)的受害者當(dāng)時正在為國際上的知名品牌生產(chǎn)加工著服裝。 The garment workers of Bangladesh are the most deprived labor force in the world. Most are paid between US$14 to US$16 per month, the lowest salary in the world. Bangladesh's apparel sector now employ 2.5 million in more than 5,000 factories and the largest industrial sector contribute more than 75 per cent to the country's export earnings. The workers in the Bangladesh garment industry work for little more than starvation wages, under conditions closer to those endured by European workers 150-200 years ago. 90% are young girls and women from 12 years upwards: physical and sexual abuse in the workplace is common. The workplace is a highly dangerous place in this industry as between 2005 and 2010; at least 172 workers were killed due to fire, building collapse and clashes. Most of the victims were producing clothes for well-known international brands when they died. 
2010年6月30日，服裝工人阿克特在呼喊著，當(dāng)她在達(dá)卡的一次抗議中被警察打傷時。超過80名孟加拉人在旨在提高紡織工人工資待遇的沖突中被警察打傷。 June 30, 2010：Garment worker Rahela Akhter screams as she was wounded by police during a protest in Dhaka. More than 80 Bangladeshis were wounded in clashes with police demands by textile workers for a pay rise.
