Turning sustainable fashion research into real change - in closets, in policy, in classrooms
With a double PhD in climate ethics and politics, Katia Dayan (Vladimirova) has been in academic research for almost twenty years. Most of this time, her focus was on the topics of sustainable fashion consumption, post-growth fashion futures and fashion policy.

Katia’s mission has been to bridge research and action through public speaking, writing and courses for individual behavior change, thought leadership and consulting for systemic policy change, teaching and research, entrepreneurship, and, since recently, through my work as a Deputy Mayor in her local commune Ferney-Voltaire, part of Geneva.
