The Power of Ethical Design - Jo Cope - Ravensborne University talk

"Ethical design is making responsible choices that benefit individuals, society, and the world. It is about the design process, our work practices, how we collaborate with others and the significance of the end products” (The Lates)

This week I spoke to students and departments across design and fashion disaplines at Ravensbourne University about how I incorporate impactful ethical practices into my work. In particular my journey to curating the Shoes Have Names project in colaboration with Shelter charity in September 2020 at Boutique by Shelter in Coal Drops Yard for London Craft Week.

Thank you to the host Liz Ciokajlo, senior lecturer BA Fashion Accessory and textile futures, also one of the 10 designers for Shoes Have Names and all of the other faculties and departments and students who signed up! It was a great event.
