REV On Air with Aja Barber: How Both Personal Responsibility and Corporate Accountability in Fashion Are Needed for the Humanitarian and Climate Crisis - a podcast by Rêve En Vert

Today we are so excited to have an incredibly inspiring voice with the sustainable fashion movement on with us in the form of author and activist Aja Barber.

Aja’s work builds heavily on ideas behind privilege, wealth inequality, racism, feminism, colonialism and how to fix the fashion industry with all these things in mind. She highlights inequality at the individual, societal and corporate level, using her own experiences and key observations within her own personal touch points. She is brilliant at identifying the the beliefs, institutional structures and corporate blind spots that hold inequality in place, and then suggesting ways to change that.

Our conversation today comes off the back of the REV team all just finishing her new book, Consumed, which we highly recommend everyone read. A lot of the themes go way beyond fashion into wider complexities that hold a broken system in place for so many of us, and how a lot of our own individual actions could go a long way to fixing the problems this poses. This is a straight talking conversation about both the severe issues with fast fashion and the solutions with sustainable fashion, and we can’t wait to get into it with Aja and share this with you all!
