Ethical Making

The Ethical Making Programme was established to promote, support and educate on ethical making practices in the jewellery and silversmithing sector in Scotland. The Programme consists of three core projects: The Ethical Making Resource, The Ethical Making Pledge and the Scottish Goldsmiths Trust annual Symposium. Through these projects, the Ethical Making Programme seeks to empower others to develop their own ethical making approach and spread awareness of environmental and social sustainability in the making of jewellery and silver. 

The Ethical Making Resource

The Ethical Making Resource is a website for makers who are looking for practical information about adopting responsible and sustainable making practices. The resource was created to bring together the vast amounts of information about ethical making in jewellery and silversmithing and to provide clear and practical ways to adopt an ethical approach. 

The Resource includes information about what ethical making means, how to implement specific practices, where to source materials sustainably and fairly, and a blog. The Ethical Making Resource is currently being redesigned and as we develop new content for the new Resource, we welcome feedback from the industry of what you think should be included within the added content. Get in touch below.
