INSPOREATION is an opportunity for young girls 10 to 18-years-old to learn about bioscience and sustainability by making. Through the playful and creative nature of making this unique product allows girls to engage in science by reconnecting with the things that they wear. Today’s fast fashion has taken a toll on the environment. INSPOREATION empowers young girls to understand a products lifecycle and impact, helping them think critically about contemporary environmental problems. It is an opportunity to explore the possible future uses of biomaterials, become comfortable with hands-on learning and the possibility of failure, develop mindful design practices, and consider the implications of designing something that comes directly from nature and can be returned back to nature in a more sustainable process. These bio-accessories make sustainability and bioscience fashionable and allow the wearer to make a statement that they care about the environment.
