WeDesign’s “Executive Education in Sustainable Fashion” Program, invites senior fashion executives from China to spend a week in NYC learning about successful sustainability efforts in fashion organizations and companies. Starting with a series of foundational online classes, participants arrive in NYC for a program which gives insight by leading organizations, experts and academics through a series of lectures, discussions, panels, and workshops.
After the NYC program completes, participants in the program will have the opportunity to visit the Copenhagen Fashion Summit to further build their knowledge.
This course explores the challenges, risks, and successes of companies who have incorporated sustainability. And finally, it recognizes executives’ critical and unique roles in managing our global future by equipping them with the tools to create or strengthen a more responsible, respected and viable business.
