Eco Design Fair believes in and inspires students of all ages to make eco consious choices.
Our children are the future and the fate of this planet is not only in our hands, but in theirs too. Through fun and family-oriented activities, we show children about being good stewards of the earth, that what they do can make a difference and how they can play an active role in Shanghai.
In order to teach our children that they make a difference in caring for our surrounding environment, Eco Design Fair displayed student’s work - by students of different ages and backgrounds - on how sustainability is addressed in their school’s curriculum, including primary school projects on environmental issues from Western International School of Shanghai, student works from the Fashion Degree Program at Raffles Design Institute, and recycled artwork from local Xuhui District elementary schools.
If your school is interested in participating in future Eco Design Fairs, please contact nihao@ecodesignfair.cn.
