The global apparel sector faces disruption on all sides—from technological innovation to geopolitics and climate change. This side session for the 2023 OECD Forum on Due Diligence in the Garment and Footwear Sector invites sector insiders to explore how we might ensure a just, inclusive transition to a responsible and sustainable garment and footwear sector, in light of critical changes today. Combining design thinking and futures thinking methodology, we will facilitate a discussion to consider the potential ramifications of relevant trends from the point of view of fictional personas representing key players in supply chains.
