SUSTAINABLE FASHION

     “Sustainable Fashion” is a project to be developed through the 2nd term by the Bilingual Section.       Thursday, 29th February 2024, being a probable date for its presentation.

     The goals we would like to meet with it are to show fashion as a way of social integration as well as a way to make a difference; realize the economic benefits that the fashion industry conveys together with the consequences of a non-sustainable industrial action and those consequences from abuse on the part of individuals.

     This Project will try to raise consciousness about the importance to accomplish SDGs of Agenda 2030, in particular:
