Tutustu kestävään muotiin ja tue paikallisia ja vastuullisia muotimerkkejä
Pohjoismaat ovat suuria pikamuodin tuottajia ja kuluttajia, mutta viime vuosina elämäntapoja on alettu muuttaa kestävämpään suuntaan. Miten Pohjoismaat voivat nousta muodin kiertotalouden edelläkävijöiksi, ja miten omasta vaatekaapista voi tehdä entistä vastuullisemman?
Tule mukaan paneelikeskusteluun, jonka aiheena on Kestävä muoti Pohjoismaissa: pikamuotiteollisuuden kielteiset vaikutukset ja niiden torjuminen. Keskustelemassa ovat vastuullisuusvaikuttaja ja luennoitsija Outi Pyy, ompeluvallankumoustiimi Fæbrikin Mari Nordén ja hitaaseen muotiin keskittyvän Forét-merkin perustajiin kuuluva Jeppe Meier. Keskustelua moderoi Fashion Revolution Sverigen Fiona Sjöberg. Tapahtumaa voi seurata myös verkossa: https://www.wedonthavetime.org/event/cop26.
Sustainable Fashion Panelin jälkeen pidetään Pop Up Showroom, jossa nähdään pienten, paikallisten ja vastuullisten suomalaisbrändien tuotteita. Innovatiivisia muotilöytöjä tehdessä voi nauttia musiikista, vegaanipurtavista ja paikallisten tuottajien juomista.
Tapahtuma on osa YK:n COP26-ilmastokokouksen pohjoismaisen hubin ohjelmaa.
