2019
In 2019 we focused on SDG 5 - Achieve gender equality in the fashion industry. We worked in four teams each addressing different part of the supply chain: raw materials, sourcing, production and marketing and consumers. We presented our work in front of a jury which picked a winning team that we all agree that has the most relevant role in tackling gender equality issues.
A short movie was made and presented before the speech we gave on the main stage of the Copenhagen Fashion Summit.
See the video of the speech and of the winning team below.
