ECOVOGUE – Fashioning a Sustainable Tomorrow: STE(A)Ming Against Climate Change
EcoVogue empowers young girls to explore careers in Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) by connecting these fields with the world of fashion—a space that is creative, familiar, and hands-on.
At the same time, the project raises awareness about the environmental impact of the fashion industry, addressing issues such as pollution and climate change. By doing so, EcoVogue aligns with the goals of the European Education Area and the 2030 Strategic Framework for Education and Training.
Through innovative learning experiences, EcoVogue inspires girls to develop new skills, spark creativity, and become active contributors to a more sustainable future—supporting the EU’s 2050 climate goals while shaping the next generation of changemakers.
About
The EcoVogue project is an Erasmus+ initiative designed to address the underrepresentation of girls in STEAM by using fashion as an innovative educational tool. We blend environmental awareness with design, boosting interest in science and technology through creative, sustainable fashion experiences.
Project results
Throughout the project, several key results will be developed in order to achieve its goals:
The project delivers staff training through both face-to-face teacher activities and virtual seminars and webinars, strengthening educators’ capacity to deliver STEAM education effectively. Furthermore, EcoVogue facilitates international student mobility and launches an EU-wide eTwinning project, promoting cross-cultural collaboration through STEAM-focused fashion platforms.
How is the project carried out?
The EcoVogue project is implemented across six European countries, through the active collaboration of partner schools and organizations. Each partner contributes by conducting research, engaging in outreach activities, and organizing events that connect young people, educators, and communities.
In addition, the project develops training materials and organizes training mobilities for both educators and students, ensuring that knowledge is not only shared but also applied in practical, creative, and collaborative ways.
Together, these efforts form the foundation of EcoVogue – combining knowledge, creativity, and cross-border collaboration to promote sustainability, innovation, fast fashion awareness, and greater participation of girls in STEAM fields.
