Ahead of the International Women’s Day, Prada Group and UNFPA, the United Nations sexual and reproductive health agency, announced the third edition of the “Fashion Expressions: The Stories She Wears” program. After the initiative launched in Mexico in 2023, following on from the Ghana and Kenya edition in 2022, the project now enters a new stage of development.
The program, which will be running from April 2025 to February 2026, will be characterized by a peer-to-peer learning approach and will engage 46 women artisans from Querétaro, Mexico: 26 of whom completed the training last year and will continue with advanced sessions, alongside a new group of 20 young women, aged 25 to 28.
. A first phase, dedicated to developing and enhancing the women’s technical and creative skills, will be followed by a series of practical sessions with industry experts. The program will also include modules on business development and financial literacy, and will culminate with lessons on gender equality and human rights.
The 2025 edition once again places fashion at the center of empowerment to cultivate women’s talent and contribute to the well-being of local communities.
