We\u2019ve been learning, researching, and reflecting on the social and environmental impact of the textile industry for some time now, and we want to take action!<\/p>\n<p>What inspires us?<br \/>People: On April 24, 2013, the Rana Plaza building in Bangladesh collapsed, killing 1,138 people and injuring another 2,500 while they were working for brands found in every closet.<br \/>The collapse of the Rana Plaza, one of the worst industrial disasters in history, brought to light the precarious working conditions in the sector. Since then, the Fashion Revolution movement has been calling for transparency throughout the entire textile supply chain, fighting for living wages and the use of sustainable materials. <\/p>\n<p>The Planet: The textile industry is responsible for 10% of CO2 emissions. Three years ago, the UN turned its attention to the rapid and continuous production of inexpensive clothing (fast fashion), labeling the sector an environmental emergency and highlighting its contribution to the climate crisis, given its negative environmental impacts associated with the production, distribution, and management of textile waste. <\/p>\n<p>We all buy clothes because clothing is a basic necessity, but as young people, we also play a key role in setting trends.

Not all of these factors are directly within our control as consumers, but there are several areas where our contribution is direct and significant. Committing to a model of repair and design that incorporates textile recycling allows us to begin breaking this cycle.  <\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, customizing clothing makes it possible to express personal identity outside the realm of mass-produced aesthetics. Identity is a much more complex construct, and people\u2019s bodies do not necessarily conform to mainstream fashions and tastes. Customize your clothes to turn them into unique pieces that serve as an outward reflection of who you are\u2014a way to present yourself to the world and express yourself through fashion.  <\/p>\n<p>In this workshop, the MUCAM collective\u2014the university movement for fashion awareness and activism\u2014will guide you through three DIY textile upcycling techniques: stenciling with fabric paint, patches, and buttons.<\/p>\n<p>[\/dipi_advanced_tabs_item][dipi_advanced_tabs_item title=&#8221;registration&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;inscripci\u00f3n&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|10px|10px|10px|false|true&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Price: Free<\/p>\n<p>Materials: We\u2019ll have basic materials available in the workshop (needles, thread, embroidery hoops, fabric paint, stencils, craft knives, scissors, buttons, recycled clothing\u2026), but you must bring the garment you\u2019d like to customize.
