In a groundbreaking move, the Swedish fashion-tech brand has joined forces with the United Nations Conscious Fashion and Lifestyle Network. This collaboration is aimed at implementing pioneering strategies for animal protection within the global fashion industry.
— Being the first to represent animal protection in the United Nations Conscious Fashion and Lifestyle Network is an honour, says Josefin Liljeqvist. We are eager to collaborate, learn, and inspire, hoping to accelerate animal protection in the field.
Liljeqvist has been at the forefront of integrating technology and conscious design in fashion, creating a unique niche of purposeful luxury. The brand’s latest innovation, a Measure, Report, Verify (MRV) system named Responsible Systems, offers a comprehensive approach to ensuring transparency and accountability in the fashion industry’s supply chain, focusing on the well-being of animals.
The United Nations Conscious Fashion and Lifestyle Network, a collaboration between the United Nations Office for Partnerships and the Fashion Impact Fund, unites stakeholders from industry, media, governments, and UN bodies. It advocates for responsible practices in fashion and lifestyle, aligning them with the Sustainable Development Goals to emphasise these sectors’ impact on society and the environment and promote transparent and inclusive global engagement.
— We are thrilled to welcome Josefin Liljeqvist to our network, says Kerry Bannigan, co-founder of the initiative. Their dedication to animal protection and their innovative MRV system are set to drive transformative change, guiding us towards a more ethical fashion industry.
Josefin Liljeqvist’s role within the network will be pivotal. The brand will offer its expertise in animal protection, contributing to the collective mission of fostering more responsible and conscious practices.
