Fashion activism - Now What?

The world is on fire - what are we going to do about it?

Fashion activism - Now What?
Angela Christofilou @protests_photos

Fashion activism is in a state of flux. We're fighting global crises on multiple fronts. Right-wing governments are cutting off campaign funding. Corporate social media is controlled by the worst people in the world. So now what?

Join me for an urgent online event with the Clean Clothes Campaign on Tuesday 25th March at 13:00 CET.

Wondering what your fashion activism should look like?

I’ll be speaking alongside:

  • Zehra Khan, political activist who founded Pakistan’s first trade union for home-based workers.
  • Niki Gamara, who works in South East Asia with garment workers documenting factory-level violations.
  • Mirjana Obradović, who successfully campaigned, alongside other garment workers, to secure unpaid severance from German brand Olymp.

Come along at this critical time to discuss how we will build global solidarity, defend women's rights and fight for labour rights in the fashion industry.
