Digital Multilogue on Fashion Education

This is a virtual event.

Friday, September 25, 2020 - 15:00 to 18:30

How and why do we learn and teach fashion in times of a global health crisis, in times of social, environmental and democratic crises? The didactic and pedagogic questions, the pragmatic and philosophical questions we are asking ourselves as fashion educators have changed significantly. What questions and challenges do we share? What experience and solutions can we share and develop together?

We see a strong need for reflection and discussion, a great interest in collaboration across disciplines and institutions. The Multilogue on Fashion Education is conceived as a space of contemplation and exchange, an opportunity for fashion educators of different subjects and institutions to meet, exchange experience, to learn from each other, develop ideas together and collaborate.

Please join The Multilogue and spread the word. Please register here.

We look forward to collaborating!
