Denim Remix is an interdisciplinary program that introduces 13-year-olds to sustainable fashion through creativity, critical thinking, and hands-on exploration to investigate the issue of textile waste. At the core of their learning experience is the creation of a small accessory from post-consumed jeans, which becomes their tool for exploring the entire textile production chain—from waste to reinvention. Working in small groups, students will engage in collaborative activities blending design thinking, participatory processes, and co-creation.

Among others they will have the chance to get to know the Back to Eco textile project and visit a digital fabrication lab, while they will experiment with both traditional and digital fabrication techniques, such as embroidery, laser cutting, and vinyl making. This program invites young minds to rethink fashion and materials through upcycling and sustainability.

Back to Eco is a non-profit, non-governmental organization that develops and promotes initiatives for a more circular textile industry. Their goal is to extend the life cycle of textiles, encouraging reuse and recycling on a global scale—mirroring the balance of the natural world, where nothing becomes waste, and everything has value. They support individuals, companies, and institutions on the journey toward a fashion industry that benefits the planet.
