A fair fashion campaigner and content creator, Venetia challenges the status quo of the fashion industry and inspires real change! We're honoured to host Venetia La Manna (@venetialamanna) at TEDxWarwick, where she'll challenge the status quo of the fashion industry and inspire real change! A fair fashion campaigner and content creator, Venetia has been fearlessly challenging the exploitative fashion industry, greenwashing, and corporate greed since 2018. As the co-founder of Say No To Shein, she's leading the fight to block the brand's London Stock Exchange listing, advocating for garment workers, and pushing for a more ethical fashion future. Beyond her online activism, Venetia works on the ground with The Or Foundation in Ghana, tackling the textile waste crisis, and has been featured in The Guardian, Vogue, USA Today, and Channel 4's Inside Shein. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ht
