UN Fashion and Lifestyle Network

Fashion for
People &
the Planet

Connecting industry initiatives, scaling circular solutions, and accelerating progress towards the 2030 Agenda through responsible fashion.

The Network

Global Collaboration
for a Sustainable Future

Recognizing the fashion and lifestyle industries' profound environmental, economic, and societal influence, the UN Fashion and Lifestyle Network actively advocates for transparent, inclusive, and transformative engagement among global stakeholders.

The Network offers its members a unique space for collaboration from local to international scale — access to the newest reports, speaking opportunities, and invitations to events. Registered initiatives serve as powerful showcases of how the fashion and lifestyle sectors are driving transformative change.

The UN Fashion and Lifestyle Network is a collaborative initiative of the UN Office for Partnerships, the Fashion Impact Fund, and the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs. UNIDO is a supporting partner.

With global reach, the network highlights the impactful achievements of its diverse membership through regular in-person and virtual events including convenings, panels, and webinars — both at UN Headquarters in New York and on a global scale.

The time to come together to enable action and collaboration to meet the Goals is now.

About the Network

A Global Platform for Sustainable Fashion Action

The UN Fashion Network is a voluntary multistakeholder platform coordinated by the Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UNDESA). It connects governments, private-sector actors, civil society, and intergovernmental organisations committed to transforming the fashion industry in line with the 2030 Agenda.

Through the High-Level Political Forum (HLPF) process and national voluntary reviews, the Network maps commitments, shares evidence-based solutions, and amplifies progress across all 17 Sustainable Development Goals.
