The clothing and textile industry is the largest polluter in the world, only after oil. With the urgent call for circular economy and new solutions to solve climate issues, what could be a practical, easy and collective way to reduce consumption and recycle waste?

Inspired by the act of passing on and exchange not just material belongings but also memories and values, Swap Up: Change Through Exchange aims to reduce overconsumption by creating a bartering culture for The New School community.
