This week on Ours to Protect, we took a look at an event that aimed to inspire and engage young people in the world of sustainable fashion.
Did you know?......
Over 300 Transition Year students attended 2024 Haberdashery programme on Monday Jan 15th.
This is the largest event of its type ever to be held in Ireland and the first to focus on the bioeconomy and circular economy for this cohort.
This was a unique opportunity for TY students to work in teams and develop concept level products using virtual design boards.
This event focused on sustainable fashion as an element.
What can I do?.....
Cutting down on fast fashion can help towards sustainability.
You could do this by buying better and buying once. Having good quality items that will last can help make a difference.
Education. Young people and students are the future of climate action. The more young people are educated on this matter, the more hope there is in the future.
