ACTAsia's Partnership with London College of Fashion Course is Turning Heads

From ACTAsia
August 2024

The course caters for fashion students and professionals and was written by Dawn Kotuwage, Director of Programmes, ACTAsia and John Lau, Dean of Academic Strategy at the London College of Fashion. By the end of the course, students will be equipped with the knowledge to write their own manifesto for compassion in fashion, identifying the problems inherent to the fashion industry and visualising change.  

Each year, ACTAsia sets the brief for the Collaborative Challenge unit at London College of Fashion (LCF) which gives masters students industry experience before they graduate. The unit is student-led and requires students to be motivated and proactive drawing on teamwork, design thinking, problem-solving, project planning and negotiation skills.

The briefs set by ACTAsia over the last three years have all been focused on encouraging conscientious consumerism across all generations:

• What are sustainable materials and how can we promote them?
• Looking at the FutureLearn course and what can we do to advance its reach
• How to engage with young people about the work of ACTAsia

It is also a professional platform that offers live engagement on the subject of Sustainability, Diversity and Social Responsibility with:

• Current research and technologies
• Industry partners and alumnus
• Academic partners
