PVH is committed to working with its suppliers and other stakeholders to preserve water resources in communities where we work and live, particularly in high-risk river basins in those areas. Tommy Hilfiger’s work with WWF on the Taihu Water Stewardship Project continued in 2016 through participation in collective action that engaged among others, local Chinese government, CNTAC representatives, local NGOs, local suppliers etc. to promote better Taihu Basin governance model.The team is working collectively to reduce water risks for business, ecosystems and communities by raising awareness and improving knowledge of impact, promoting Industrial Park (IP) Water Stewardship, engaging in collective action in the Taihu Basin, and multiplying our impact through standardizing systems. In 2016, Tommy Hilfiger, in collaboration with other brands conducted a water training in Shanghai for upwards of 50 suppliers, engaged a new industrial park to join eco-IP program, and participated in the International Taihus Basin Forum.
