V okviru projekta GEM spodbujamo aktivnosti za promocijo trajnostne mode za mlade. Iniciativa, imenovana “Sustainable Ethiopian Street Fashion” vključuje več mladih modnih oblikovalcev, ki ustvarjajo modo z uporabo naravnih materialov, prijaznih do ljudi in okolja.

Druga pomembna iniciativa v okviru projekta je Festival rokodelskih in umetnostnih izdelkov v Lalibeli. Prvi festival, na katerem je sodelovalo 29 razstavljalcev, je potekal v oktobru. Razstavljalci so se strinjali, da gre za zelo učinkovit pristop za povečevanje prodaje in prepoznavnosti turistične destinacije, zato ga bodo v začetku prihodnjega leta ponovno organizirali.
Within the GEM project, we are supporting Sustainable Ethiopian Street Fashion Movement.
The initiative is led by several young Ethiopian fashion designers who are creating their trendy designs from natural materials with care for people and nature.
The other major GEM initiative, Lalibela Arts and Crafts Festival, held in October 2019, proved to be very successful, gathering 29 exhibitors of authentic handicrafts. Local artisans agreed to organise it again in the beginning of the next year.
