Cultura della Sostenibilità. Knowledge to Transform
The Sustainable Fashion Innovation Society served as scientific knowledge partner of ICE Agency for the course “Cultura della Sostenibilità: Conoscere per Trasformare”, an advanced online training programme that registered approximately 250 enrolments, confirming the strong interest of the younger generation in sustainability topics.
This multidisciplinary programme trained a new generation capable of uniting ethics and innovation, vision and responsibility: a generation ready to bring sustainability to the heart of Made in Italy, transforming it into perspective, opportunity, and leadership.
After weeks of study, dialogue, and vision building, participants acquired the cultural, economic, and technological tools to read the present and guide the transformation of the future.
