Kurzbeschreibung:
This white paper is the first of a series of publications in which we will build upon that body of thought. We will examine sustainable fashion – the claims, the measurement, the reporting. We will critically assess the extent to which fashion’s efforts are contributing to meaningful change, and to what extent they are a distraction, and inhibiting genuine transformation. We will also suggest
ways in which governments can change the rules, and so alter mindsets and corporate behaviour, to obtain the results that we all want – a halt to climate change and a more equitable world.
The fashion industry has the potential to create positive impacts for business and society. It can catalyse decent jobs and opportunities that support socio-economic development in the global south and it can innovate and align production and marketing with planetary boundaries.
In this initial white paper, we start with the foundation from which all sustainability initiatives must be derived.
