Around the World in 80 Fabrics Webinar

Join us on a journey with Around the World in 80 Fabrics (ATW80F), a multi-media educational nonprofit addressing the global impact of petroleum-based textiles. Co-founded by National Geographic Explorers Dr. Tierney Thys and Carroll Dunham, ATW80F has uncovered over 200 sustainable fabrics from 45 countries.

The session touches on their fascinating discoveries, both scientific and cultural, as they work with indigenous artisans, global communities and brands to highlight materials of cultural and ecological value. Learn about their educational programs, global partnerships, and upcoming book with Insight Publishers.

Ideal for anyone interested in the connections between sustainable textiles, cultural heritage and planetary health, this webinar reveals how materials can shape a healthier, more connected world.
