ActionAid Sydney Activists and the University of Sydney Fashion Revolution Society are hosting a special panel event to bring together different perspectives on issues in the fashion industry, and learn how our clothing could be made ethically and sustainably - at the industry and individual level.
RSVP here: https://events.humanitix.com/future-of-fashion-2022
This event is sponsored by Young Henry's. Refreshments will also be provided. ActionAid and USYD Fashion Revolution support responsible consumption of alcohol.
*Future of Fashion*
In the lead up to one of the biggest shopping events of the year - Black Friday and Cyber Monday - join a panel of ethical fashion and sustainability experts who will share different perspectives on the issues in the fashion industry, such as the exploitation of women workers and its impact on the environment. We'll discuss how we can work together towards an ethical and sustainable future for fashion, with government, fashion brands, and individuals like you.
Garment workers have had to endure unsafe and sometimes life-threatening workplaces for too long. Almost ten years ago, on 24 November 2012, 112 garment workers died when a fire broke out the Tazreen Fashions garment factory in Bangladesh. In 2013, Rana Plaza, an eight-story building housing five garment factories in Bangladesh, collapsed, killing 1,134 workers, and injuring more than 2,600. It is one of the greatest industrial tragedies of all time. This collapse catalysed the creation of the Bangladesh Accord in 2013, which has since transitioned to the International Accord for Health and Safety in the Textile and Garment Industry. The International Accord commits brands to protecting the safety of the women who make their clothes.
In the lead up to Black Friday and the tenth anniversary of the Tazreen factory fire, ActionAid and USYDFR are holding a panel event to raise awareness about issues in the fashion industry, and discuss solutions. Come join us!
Panel speakers are:
Rachel Rutt, Founder of RUTT AU
Nina Gbor, Sustainable fashion speaker & campaigner
Dr Yi Li, Business Lecturer at USYD
Dr Lisa Heinze Lake, PhD in sustainabilityand fashion
