Internship blogpost 1/3

Hello everyone,

Exciting and important things happening at the Helsinki Fashion Week! I will spend this summer doing my internship at HFW and together with another intern, we are conducting a research about animal leather transparency and traceability. Since I am studying textile value chain management, I will be focusing on the leather production and supply chain. The other intern comes with a law background and he will be focusing on the legal side of the leather industry. Together we will create an interesting report about the current state of the leather transparency and traceability and we will evaluate what needs to be done in order to make the leather industry more sustainable and transparent in the future.

Marita
