Event Sponsors and Partners​

Event Sponsors and Partners

Eco Fashion Week Africa (EFWA) is a pioneering initiative founded by two sisters who are passionate about leveraging fashion to promote environmental sustainability and social responsibility. EFWA’s mission is to create a fashion week that leaves a positive imprint, setting a global standard for an industry that enriches our planet and empowers its people.

Monetary sponsorships are crucial for EFWA to execute its series of events and activities that promote sustainable fashion practices. These include environmental clean-ups, eco-educational workshops, forums, ‘No New Clothes’ fashion shows, and swaps, all designed to engage communities and educate the public.

We would like to thank Babylon Hospitality for walking with us in 2023 & 2024 and believing in this dream that has now become impactful, engaging, and has spread across Africa.

We are currently looking for monetary sponsorship and in-kind or strategic partnerships for Vol 3 in November 2025. If you have any leads, please write to us on info@ecofashionweekafrica.com
