Clean Fashion Summit 2024: (G)LOCAL

The next edition of our summit will untangle GLOBAL / LOCAL ways of working, exploring how we can ethically partner with and champion overseas partnerships. Diving into the nature of imperial capitalism, from sourcing raw materials to waste management and how we can practice better business with fairer gains for people and planet.
