Fashion forward: sustainability and ethics in supply chain management

The fashion industry is renowned for its environmental and social impact, and big changes are needed to make it more sustainable.

Dr Hakan Karaosman, Senior Lecturer and expert in fashion sustainability, and PhD student Amy Boote (BSc 2021, MSc 2024) share how supply chain strategies can be transformed to tackle climate change in a fair and socially just way.

Drawing on real experiences of workers and suppliers, they’ll discuss their research, sharing insights into labour rights, social justice, and climate action – offering a fresh perspective on how we can create a more people-centred fashion industry.
