In recent years, the fashion and beauty industries have undergone a profound transformation in terms of awareness. With growing concern about issues such as sustainability, diversity and inclusion, consumers are increasingly demanding in terms of the brands they choose to support. Amplifying the transformative power of these sectors becomes not only a necessity, but also an opportunity to drive significant changes in society. This panel will look at strategies to promote responsibility, inclusion and diversity. Sustainable, ethical and transparent practices will be explored, as well as the use of campaigns, initiatives and projects that promote awareness. What is the impact of specialized media, social media and influencers in spreading awareness messages and mobilizing society?

Angela Brito | Palestrante
ANGELA BRITO
Angela Brito is from Cape Verde and the connection she maintains with her country of origin is of great importance to her, as her identity and imagery constructions come from the memories she cultivated in her place of origin, however, this has never been a limit for Angela, who considers her creations a sum between her place of origin, her place of residence, Brazil, and her experiences elsewhere, thus considering herself a citizen of the world. Her desire for fashion was linked from an early age to the search for understanding herself as an individual, pushing her towards self-realization, and preparing herself to create the ANGELA BRITO brand in 2014.
