About the Series

RCGD Global and Fashion Takes Action have partnered to deliver an educational digital series to introduce sustainable fashion within schools. 

The series educates young minds, educators and communities on the power of the fashion industry to create positive impact. With this free resource, students can get informed at no cost, while more in-depth workshops are available to schools should students demonstrate an interest in the subject matter.

Through the animated content, complete with infographics, we provide an interactive learning forum with a focus on topics such as sustainable manufacturing, climate change, biodiversity protection, activism, circular economy and waste. Viewers will learn about zero-waste designs and material innovation, and will be able to identify who is responsible for fashion’s footprint.

About FTA

Fashion Takes Action (FTA) is a non-profit organization established in 2007 to advance sustainability in the entire fashion system – those who make, sell, buy, wear, dispose, reuse, repair, and recycle clothing! Our role is to remove barriers to sustainability through education, awareness, research and collaboration.

In 2014 FTA launched My Clothes My World, a youth program for students in grades 4-12, that educates and empowers them with the tools and resources to shift toward more conscious behaviour. Connecting with young people before they are out in the world buying clothes, is the key to long term behaviour change.
