Our current fashion industry is broken. Profiting from the failings of the system, overproduction and overconsumption are creating a global textile waste crisis.
Structural racism, inequality, and a lack of transparency – all lead to the exploitation of people and planet.
Everyone has a part to play in building a fair, clean and safe fashion industry, but for effective change, we must reach beyond individual actions. The most powerful solutions are already happening in communities, collectives, and local networks – so let us learn from them, not reinvent.
Hope without action sustains the systems to continue operating business as usual. Building on consciousness, connection and community, this year we call for action from the collective as a whole – sharing hope to create change. From the individual to the collective, from collective to action, from action to hope.
