Action Learning Day Sustainable Fashion Management, AMS, Antwerp

On 1 September, CIFAL Flanders hosted an Action Learning Day on “Sustainability in Fashion Action Management” for the students of the Summer School in Fashion Management organized by the University of Antwerp and the Antwerp Management School.

During the Action Learning Day, the students had an interactive overview on the Sustainable Development Goals which challenged the students to think about fashion in relation to people, planet and profit, as well as peace and partnership. The fashion class also had the opportunity to visit clothing stores and encountered inspiring leaders in fashion that provided best practice cases for corporate social responsibility, circular economy and business ethics.
