Meet the team

Meet the Fashion Revolution Team members who will be running this course.

Now let’s meet the Fashion Revolution team. You’ll then get the opportunity to introduce yourselves, and say hello to us and your fellow peers.

We are the Fashion Revolution Policy and Research team. We manage projects such as the Fashion Transparency Index, the Garment Worker Diaries, the Consumer Survey and Fashion Revolution’s white paper, as well as many others. Our aim is to build an evidence base, raise awareness and work collaboratively to advocate for policy change.

Meet Sarah Ditty, our Global Policy Director

Sarah developed the Fashion Transparency Index back in 2016 and has lead its evolution since then. Sarah also leads ‘Trade Fair Live Fair’ an European Commission funded programme focused on raising awareness of sustainable consumption and driving changes in public policies and private sector practices that contribute to the achievement of the SDGs. Sarah also leads the Policy Dialogue programme in India, Philippines, Rwanda and Kenya to undertake participatory policy research, funded by the British Council. Sarah has worked in social responsibility and environmental sustainability in the fashion sector for the past eleven years and was recently named one of London’s most influential people by the Evening Standard Progress 1000. She holds a BA in Global Studies from Hamline University in the U.S. and MSc in Globalisation and Development from SOAS, University of London.
