Sustainability and Reuse Concepts

Movements and practices organized around reducing waste, reusing material or trading craft goods on fairer terms, following the strand division craft-history surveys draw for the sustainability and reuse strand of contemporary craft thought. Belongs here: upcycling, slow fashion, fair trade craft movement, visible mending and victory garden, the wartime and food-security precedent for present-day home food growing. Does not belong here: a movement organized around aesthetics or lifestyle rather than material reuse or fair trade, grouped separately.
