Applications for participation in the fourth round of the annual Global Change Award, initiated in 2015 by the non-profit foundation of the Swedish company H&M, are open. This award has already been dubbed the Nobel Fashion Prize.

The award was established in order to financially support innovative projects in the fashion industry aimed at environmental developments that protect our planet and improve people's living conditions, and promote sustainable development.

This year, special attention will be focused on digital innovations that can have a significant impact on the industry.

The Global Change Award is an opportunity to think about technology, fashion and the long-term plans of all mankind and achieve positive and sustainable changes on our planet.
