Topics Discussed:

TWS x Redress
On the 29th of January, Support! International Foundation is hosting our annual Tidal Wave Series event, in collaboration with Redress. Redress is a non-government organisation that works to reduce waste in the fashion industry. The goal of the event is to foster greater awareness of clothing waste in Hong Kong through a series of topical discussions surrounding sustainability. During the event, there will also be chances to support your local thrift stores.
We are looking for students who are enthusiastic, to support us and participate in this event. This is an amazing opportunity to engage with the Hong Kong clothing community.
