While SHC industry is noticeably beneficial for the economy and the people of Kenya due to job creation, income and revenue generation, providing affordable clothing, one should not ignore the detrimental impact on the environment and local textile\/fashion industry which might be the backbone of economic growth and social transformation. In order to keep the benefits and minimize the drawbacks of SHC industry, in the short run the supply side pressure should be eased via decreasing the quantity and increasing the quality of SHC inflow in order to minimize waste, while in the longer run the enhancement of domestic garment industry should be accompanied by the gradual decreasing\/phasing out of SHC inflow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Working Paper Nr. 273<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":8231,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[100,110],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9800","publikacio","type-publikacio","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-publications","category-working-papers-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.1 -
