In the organizer's words:

with Dana Giesecke (FuturZwei) and Carina Bischoff (Fashion Revolution)

Dana Gieseke and Carina Bischoff talk about the consequences of the fast fashion industry and the need for sustainable clothing consumption. What responsibility do fashion companies bear, but also we as consumers? And what innovative approaches can help to keep clothes in circulation for longer? The experts will shed light on alternative solutions such as the circular economy, second-hand models and new design strategies that conserve resources and promote social justice. Visitors can expect an inspiring discussion about sustainable fashion practices and concrete options for action for a fairer textile industry.
