Understanding that participants come from various backgrounds and levels of engagement with sustainability, the Global Fashion Summit's content is designed to be inclusive and diverse. The aim is to provide intersectional solutions and knowledge inputs that cater to the needs of a broad spectrum of sector participants. This approach acknowledges the fact that achieving a net-positive industry requires collective action and shared knowledge.
The summit will feature educational and action-oriented conversations on a range of integral topics that are at the heart of the sustainability discourse in fashion. These include discussions on the worldview on net positive, strategies for ending oversupply, innovative models for collective financing, the preferred fibre face-off to promote the use of sustainable materials, tipping the scale on circular material adoption, and the critical role of inclusion as an enabler for access and equity. Moreover, the programme will delve into the importance of elevating the consumer-citizen role.
