- The concern of some young people, about an uncertain future in the face of climate change or a possible global catastrophe leads them to take the initiative to learn how to grow food on an urban plot.
- Upcyclers have the drive to make an impact on Mother Earth, they are activists and social justice advocates. The world has been waiting for a fashion revolution and now they are here, on the frontlines preventing landfill waste.
- When we talk about Sustainability, we tend to focus on the sustainable solution based on resources, like materials. Here, I would like to share another side of Sustainability - Cultural Sustainability. The Japanese word "Sashiko'' has gained its popularity as a Japanese way to "recycle/mend" the fabric. The description introduced in English for Sashiko is not wrong at all, but insufficient due to translation, or sometimes intentional filtration of cultural perspective. By cherry-picking the word for a trend in textile sustainability, the cultural sustainability of Sashiko may be unbalanced, or even destroyed. Sashiko is, indeed, a hand-stitching practice to appreciate the fabric. I am happy that Sashiko is playing the role of advocating Sustainable Fashion. I just want the world to know, or even acknowledge, that the Sashiko is more than what is introduced today in English. You are here to care for the Sustainability. Your acknowledgment can protect a culture from Cultural Filtration for someone's profit. I am here to share my wisdom to keep "our Sashiko" Sustainable.
