Recognizing the quality of a garment
Responsible consumption means buying less and buying better. When we talk about clothes and their value, we are often told at the workshop that it is difficult to measure the quality of a garment. We know that a garment made here is worth more, but how else can we distinguish good quality from bad? Where do we start to determine if a garment is worth the investment?
Laurence Lafond-Beaulne talks about ACT
Mathieu presents an interview with Laurence from the ACT: Artistes Citoyens en Tournée project. Its mission is to promote eco-responsible practices in the entertainment industry. They talked about why and how the project started, the future of post-pandemic shows and the place of women in the environment. Thanks to Laurence for her time!

I think it's more than topical to share it with you today!
