Internship blogpost 3/3

Hi!

It has been a great learning experience doing a research based internship at Helsinki Fashion Week (HFW) this summer in Finland. Now it is time to move back to Sweden and this will be my last blogpost about the subject. Our research topic was about "Transparency and Traceability in the Supply Chain and Production of Leather".  It was interesting to work on this research paper together with another student who has a law-degree and thus was able to add legal perspective to our research. In addition, we had a team-leader from HFW and he was very supportive with our research, always giving feedback and encouraging to improve our work. I have learned that effective communication is an important key element in achieving goals. Even though we all in our research-team lived in different cities during this research period, we were able to communicate effectively via video calls and have weekly meetings to discuss about our progress with the research. Our research paper will be published later on HFW website together with Transparency Questionnaire that we created based on the research. In case anyone is interested in reading through our research paper, I can gladly add a link to the website when HFW publishes the research.

I wish everyone a lovely autumn and good luck with your studies!
