Hi Barbara,
I would be very pleased to welcome you in our group: Sustainable Fashion & Beauty (http://ethicalfashionforum.ning.com/group/sf-b-sustainable-fashion-and-beauty) as I would like to create a group with members of different countries but with the same approach to the sustainability. We are looking for contacts in Hong Kong and China for cooperation. Be so kind to contact me. Kind regards from Hungary, Gabi
Hi Barbara,
Great to see that there is a China group and things are happening over there - not so good (and very surprising) that there are only 12 people in the China group!
I want to introduce myself as I have worked with businesses in China for many years in my roles for British luxury goods brands. I am now working with SME's in Africa where I am building capaity, developing standards and creating links between producers and the International fashion industry. I am keen to create links between African countries and Hong Kong and China so if you know of anyone who has an interest in African fashion or textiles (I am working with many hand-weaving co-operatives) then I'd be interested to hear more.
Kind regards and keep up the good work.
Nicola.

I am a student with Manchester Metropolitan University and I am thinking of writing my dissertation about the design problems revolving around ethical fashion specifically in HK and I was wondering whether you could be of any assistance regarding additional information or interviews etc. Thanks
