January 20-21, 2010 Palais des Nations Geneva, Switzerland

EcoChic Geneva took place on January 20-21, 2010 at the Palais des Nations, the UN headquarters in Geneva. As the 2009 International Year of Natural Fibres drew to a close and the focus shifted to 2010's International Year of Biodiversity, Green2greener was delighted to collaborate with the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) on a series of activities that highlighted the importance of natural fibres and biodiversity in sustainable development strategies.

The activities included a 1.5 day seminar called "Redefining Sustainability in the International Agenda" from the perspective of the fashion and cosmetics industries, a Sustainable Fashion Exhibition and dramatic EcoChic Fashion Show featuring sustainable and ethical ready-to-wear and couture looks by fashion designers from around the globe.

This series of activities brought together senior representatives from the private sector with key decision-makers from government, civil society and other public sector organisations. For more information about EcoChic Geneva, please contact us at ecochic@green2greener.com.
