2-day Online CARBON LITERACY TRAINING for the Fashion Industry

2-day Online CARBON LITERACY TRAINING for the Fashion Industry

Description

Organised by: Fashion in Film Festival, in partnership with Carbon Literacy Project;.

The Carbon Literacy Project is an international organisation dedicated to promoting environmental awareness and action. In this 2-part online course, you will: 

  • Build a foundational understanding of the causes and consequences of climate change within wider contexts of the fashion industry, net zero, and global technological emissions.  

  • Explore a range of data contexts related to the fashion and textiles industries, exploring ways to inspire educational and organisational change through accessible approaches. 

  • Understand more about institutional carbon reporting, sharing knowledge of recent policy developments and unpacking institutional case studies that explore challenges and opportunities related to net zero targets.  

At the end of this course, each participant will be able to obtain certification in Carbon Literacy through accreditation offered by the Carbon Literacy Project.  

Who is the course tailored for? 

Our course is focused on building a wider picture around carbon reporting, net zero, and environmental impact assessment that can feed into and inform the practice of those working in or studying fashion or textiles. Our goal is to help you make appropriate, scientifically informed environmental actions, whether you are a fashion designer, buyer, merchandiser, educator, student, historian, journalist or otherwise. The course is designed to tailor to a range of expertise levels: from a seasoned sustainability professional to a curious onlooker or someone just getting started in their fashion career.  

Who leads the course?  

This course is led by George Barker, Organisational Development Consultant for Net Zero, who has taught 60+ carbon literacy courses for staff, students and the public across a range of art and design contexts. George’s research background is in environmental ethics, with a particular focus on impact reporting, and environmental risk assessment. George is the co-founder of the Climate Emergency Network, a community of staff and students based in UAL who mobilise creative action as a force for climate, social and racial justice.  

How is the course run and priced? 

Our course runs in two three-and-a-half hour sessions, with some pre-reading and post-learning tasks required to reach certification. The course is convened online, on the following dates and times: 

Course One: Thu 10 July (10am-1pm BST) and Fri 11 July (10am-1pm BST)

Book cover

Birds of Paradise: Costume as Cinematic Spectacle

£32.99

Description

This book zeroes in on three distinct historical ‘episodes’ in European and American cinema – early ‘marvellous’ film of the turn of the twentieth century, popular exotic spectaculars of the 1910s and ’20s, and underground queer cinema with its core activity in the 1960s – in order to examine how and why these often foregrounded dress as the star of the show. Interrogating film against wider cultures of urban popular spectacle and entertainment, especially fashion, dance and the theatre, the contributors to this book explore how dynamic displays of costume have helped visualise certain key concerns of modernity, such as movement, time, transience and gender identity. Above all, the essays highlight the immense transformative potential of costume and fashion, both in the moving image and beyond. The volume is lavishly illustrated with film stills, frame enlargements and other archival material.

Please allow 5-7 working days for delivery within the UK.
