About The Affiliated Organization

“The textile industry involves all of society from local to global - from consumers to producers, MSMe, value chains, artisans, businesses, designers, communicators, online sellers, marketing, big economic corporations, among others. It builds dreams and profits, but it is also responsible for modern slavery and the second most polluting industry in the world. For this reason, it’s one of the most impactful spaces to work within to transform the contemporary world”. Adriana Marina, Ashoka Fellow and founder of Hecho por Nosotros (Made By Us), and social enterprise Animaná.

Ashoka Fellow Adriana Marina is leading the integration of all the stakeholders within creative industries in a systemic change journey, joining together to create a New Creative Circular Economy based on ethics and sustainability. Stakeholders from consumers to producers, Techno tools and content, media, academics MSMe, value chains, artisans, businesses, designers, communicators, online sellers, marketing, big economic corporations, among others, must journey this path together to realize the tremendous value that such a creative economy can bring to the world. Hecho x Nosotros is an NGO with consultative status to the United Nations and the World Trade Organization.

We work to promote sustainability in the world, with a strong focus on research and education projects. Over the years we have worked with more than 80 organizations, including Ashoka, Globalizer, C&A Foundation, Ikea Entrepreneurship, Fabric of Change, UN, UNESCO, Ashoka, UNIDO, Unece, IDB Network, European Union, as well as with local governments in Argentina, Peru, Bolivia, Brazil and Mexico, and international organizations that advocate for a sustainable and ethical world, such as UNIDO, Unece, Ecotece (Brazil), Universal Love (France), Ethical Fashion Forum and Common Objective (United Kingdom), as well as a network of professionals.

We are a platform that provides tools and opportunities that encourage: companies to investigate the principles of sustainability; local value chains, history of the raw materials, the process and impact of globalization; the role of consumers; and that inspire young professionals and students to see their future as agents of change. We have constructed a network of resources about principles of sustainability, ethical production and commercialization in Latin America and beyond, serving as a reference and as a link between different actors (entrepreneurs, academics, craftsmen, students, citizens, NGOs, INGOs, States, United Nations, etc.). We aim to join together all stakeholders, with each contributing information and analysis of the fashion industry from different perspectives. In this way, we can begin to shift the paradigm and work together for a more sustainable and just world.
