It was created to remember the Rana Plaza factory disaster and to push the fashion industry toward greater transparency, fair labour, and more sustainable practices. It’s a week of encouraging all of us consumers to be mindful of our recourses and where we can reuse, mend, and slow down the consumption of materials.When you book an event, your personal information will be held and used by the National Library of Scotland and our third-party suppliers for the purposes of allowing you to attend the event and for audience research.
