Background

The Circular Fashion Programme team has a mission that is to reduce clothing waste entering Hong Kong’s landfills by increasing the reuse, resale and recycling of clothing locally. This person will mainly be reporting to the Circular Fashion Programme Manager and working with the schools team in the outreach, organisation and delivery of our education activities targeting both local and international schools. You may learn more about our school activities via www.redress.com.hk/getredressed/schools.

What we have

This volunteer position is a great opportunity for a motivated individual looking for hands-on work experience in the sustainability, sustainable fashion and/or nonprofit sector. We can provide the volunteer with a rich resource library to learn about the issue, such as presentation slides, fact sheets and online toolkit, as well as cold call and presentation scripts.

Why this is important

School education takes an important part at our work to cut clothing waste in Hong Kong. This position plays a crucial role to connect us to the local and international school network, promoting our educational activities and making sure that teachers and students are well supported in their sustainable fashion learning, whether through talks, webinars, learning events or our education resources.
