Guest Panelist: MSMEs and Technology
Hecho por Nosotros, and its sister social enterprise animana, hosted an event focused on technological solutions to bridge the gap between transparency and traceability in the global fashion industry. The conversation was led by Lilian Liu, moderator for the evening and sustainability strategist from Futerra.
“Joshua spoke of the growing awareness around the social and economic effects of unwise management and design aspects in the fashion world, which has been reflected in the academic echelons. The Parson School of Design in particular has embedded sustainability in every course, which has led to an expansive and growing space for industry and students to discuss sustainability and how it touches upon every element of fashion in the value chain. Joshua advises his students to take a holistic view of the issues involved in their sphere, weighing if these can or are worth being resolved through market, design or finance-oriented disciplines.”
