About this book
This book presents state-of-the-art research from around the world on how the fashion industry can help in the transition towards a sustainable model of development and a circular economy. It presents the proceedings of the 10th Global Fashion Conference held in 2023, which since its creation in 2008, has endeavoured to contribute to the recognition of a sectoral innovation system, which may lead to regional and transnational policies that promote innovation for the sake of sustainability.
Presenting cutting edge research on how fashion contributes to the common good, the book covers core topics including the circular economy, social innovation, fashion law and sustainability, sustainable finance, and education for sustainability, offering a meaningful contribution to the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
