In issue 07, The Activism Issue, we are taking a look into the different organizations, human rights advocates, and true change-makers. Whether they are working for an organization like Jewher Ilham who we spoke to about her advocacy work with the Coalition to End Uyghur Forced Labor, or Carry Somers - the founder of Fashion Revolution - the largest fashion activist group around the world; it’s voices and leaders like these who inspire us to do more than just shop sustainably. We cannot shop our way to sustainability.
We’ve partnered up with The Human Rights Foundation (HRF) which is a nonprofit organization that promotes and protects human rights globally, with a focus on closed societies. Their Wear Your Values programs engage the fashion industry in the human rights movement through a series of events and exhibitions designed to educate consumers and to promote supply-chain transparency in countries ruled by dictatorial regimes.
