What happens when you empower educators in Bangladesh with knowledge and tools for circular economy and design thinking? You spark a ripple of innovation that inspires change in the textile industry!
This year, together with University of Groningen and our Bangladeshi partners Bangladesh Apparel Exchange and BGMEA University of Fashion and Technology, we’ve been on an exciting mission to:
🔄 Undertand circular economy principles
💡 Innovate creatively using design thinking methodologies
🚀 Supercharge teamwork and problem-solving with hackathons
Our workshops were full of energy, curiosity and collaboration. From co-facilitating sessions to field trips to factories and conferences, educators got hands-on experience to practice what they teach. Watch this sneak peek of one of our workshops with textile stakeholders in Bangladesh. Seeing local educators step up as coaches was the highlight of the day!
And this is just the beginning. Our freshly trained educators have already run their first hackathons – taking innovation to a whole new level.
