April 22 – 28, 2019
The annual global campaign calling for a fairer, safer, more transparent fashion industry, will run from Monday 22nd – Sunday 28th April 2019. The week will kick off on Earth Day highlighting the devastating impact of the fashion industry on global warming and offering positive actions we can all take to reduce the carbon footprint of our clothes.
This year marks the 6th anniversary of the Rana Plaza factory collapse that killed 1,138 people. We will highlight how the future fashion industry must respect both people and planet with fair and decent work, environmental protection and gender equality.
From Australia to Brazil, Uruguay to Vietnam, more than 275 million people were reached with the #whomademyclothes campaign in April alone last 2018. More than 1,000 events were held in over 100 countries, from catwalks and clothes swaps, to film screenings, panel discussions, creative stunts and workshops. This year, we expect more people to take part around the globe and in the Philippines.
Stay tuned in here in the next few weeks for more information about activities happening in the country!
