DHAKA – Government ministers, as well as representatives from the European Union and United Nations, will join leading fashion brands and manufacturers at this year’s Sustainable Apparel Forum (SAF), which gets underway in Dhaka, Bangladesh, from May 10th.
The event’s organisers hope that by convening key industry stakeholders and leading authorities, the country can accelerate its charge to become the world’s most responsible apparel sourcing destination.
Mostafiz Uddin, founder of the SAF, commented: “We wanted to curate an event where key global industry influencers could gather and provide a catalyst for genuine industry change. This is high-level networking with a specific goal in mind: how can we turn the needle so that the lofty sustainability goals our industry so often talks about are translated into meaningful, practical actions?”
