for sustainable consumption and production.This collection
of essays and teaching activities for design related courses,
including garment technology and product development, will inspire you with ideas you can use in your own studio.
For further ideas for teaching sustainable design, we
recommend the Teaching Guide for the Designer's Atlas of
