Fashion Reborn Event
In a world where the fashion industry generates over 92 million tons of textile waste each year (UNEP, 2023), it’s time to rethink how we design, wear, and value our clothes.
Fashion Reborn, an initiative by the Green Earth Action Foundation (GEAF), invites you to join a hands-on, creative workshop that transforms old garments into new stories. Together, we’ll explore how upcycling, repair, and mindful design can shape a more sustainable future one stitch at a time.
Hosted in collaboration with Histoire sans chute, a Geneva-based association promoting textile circularity and local craftsmanship, the event creates a shared space for creativity, learning, and environmental action.
What to Expect
Upcycling Workshop:
Bring one or two garments from your wardrobe and learn how to repair, adjust, or creatively transform them with expert guidance. All materials and equipment will be provided.
Knowledge & Awareness Capsule:
Discover the environmental impact of fashion and learn practical steps to build a more circular wardrobe through reuse, repair, and conscious consumption.
Coffee Break & Exchange:
Connect with fellow changemakers, share ideas, and get inspired by local initiatives reshaping fashion in Geneva.
