The fashion industry is one of the largest global economic sectors, contributing significantly to India’s economy and employing millions. Yet, the legal aspects of fashion law remain underexplored in Indian academia and practice.

• Cross-border trade and supply chains
• AI and e-commerce regulations

Sessions will include expert lectures, case-based discussions, interactive activities, and a final assessment. Certificates will be awarded based on performance in the concluding test.

3. Ethics, Compliance & Sustainability – ESG, supply chain due diligence, anti-corruption, human rights
