Greenchella: The Sustainability Fair

 Greenchella, which is put on by the Fashion Institute of Technology, is a fun event that encourages students to be more environmentally friendly. People are asked to bring different things, like art tools, fabrics, and textbooks, to trade and exchange. This encourages resource reuse and reduces waste. Greenchella hosts a variety of activities throughout the week, such as workshops, discussions, and fashion shows, all of which focus on sustainable fashion practices. These give students the chance to learn about eco-friendly options and help make the fashion industry greener in the future. (open to everyone)

4th annual Sustainability Week US

Demonstrating a measurable return on investment in business transformation is hard. But boards and external investors require it, and a clear business case helps organisations secure resources to implement change. Sustainability professionals are meeting more challenges in achieving their targets, from complex laws and reporting rules to a need for change in company culture and staff skills. In 2024, this event will bring together businesses, policymakers and government. One-on-one meetings and exclusive closed-room sessions such as the CSO Leaders’ Club will provide insight on how to achieve success.

When is it: June 12-13
