The webinar has invited all the concerned quarters to participate and speak out their hearts on the subject for a sustainable fashion future.
This event is for all actors involved in the textile value chain; policymakers, the private sector (including SMEs), civil society, technical organizations, and interested individuals. The webinar is of relevance to all those communicating on sustainable fashion with consumer audiences. This includes agencies, fashion and news media, image-makers, digital platforms, influencers and educators, from Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) to multinationals worldwide.
It may be noted that there is a growing movement to boycott Black Friday with numerous brands refusing to participate in the discounts. The event had generated some $20 billion worldwide in 2019.
