The series of events ‘Threads - Rethinking Fashion’ explores the topic of sustainability in the apparel industry and how to support innovations for a fair and sustainable supply chain. The series has been created by a partnership between Impact Hub King’s Cross, Ashoka Changemakers and The Lissome.
The series will guide the audience through the 3 main steps of the supply chain - sourcing of raw materials, manufacturing, consumption - to expose the issues related to each of them, explore possible solutions and highlight best practices.  Each event focuses on a different stage of the supply chain process:
