Fashion Revolution online course 'who made my clothes?'
Do you ever think about where your clothes come from, who made them, how and at what cost? Created with Fashion Revolution, a global movement for transparency catalysed by the fatal Rana Plaza garment factory collapse in Bangladesh, this course lifts the lid on the global fashion industry. We will share with you a variety of simple techniques to find the answer yourself, and to use your findings to press the fashion industry to value people, the environment, creativity and profit in equal measure. It will encourage us to question what we, as active global citizens, can do to enable change.
