Lessons from fashion sustainability for your subject

This student-led workshop looks at some transferable approaches to sustainability from Fashion. A team of students from UTS FESS will take you through their journey to sustainability through fashion. They will demonstrate how these experiences are applicable to any subject area.

You don’t need to be an expert or even interested in fashion to attend this event. In fact, we hope that many of the principles and practices being explored will reveal opportunities for greater sustainability in many areas of your life including education and professional practice.
