E72 - Making Fashion A Force For Good with Remake's Ayesha Barenblat

In this episode, we speak with Ayesha Barenblat, CEO and founder of Remake.World. As a social entrepreneur with a passion for building sustainable supply chains that respect people and our planet, she founded Remake to mobilize citizens to demand a more just, transparent, and accountable fashion industry. Remake’s free educational resources, advocacy campaigns, and audited fashion brand directory are focused on making fashion a force for good. With over 800 members, remake puts pressure on brands to take accountability and do right by the people who make their clothes and has unlocked billions of dollars in unpaid wages owed to garment workers with their #payup campaign.

Are you ready to learn about how you, too, can turn fashion into a force for good? Join us as we learn about being thoughtful citizens over consumers and how our choices make a difference in the fashion industry and beyond.
