From the possibility to express oneself to functionality, from the creation of new ways to communicate to greater renewability: one of the challenges which the fashion industry, together with most other sectors, is called upon to tackle concerns sustainability. The aim of the paper is to trace the main solutions adopted by the fashion system in terms of sustainable practices. Firstly it analyses the contribution of material and technological innovation to promote the adoption of green products, in order to challenge the waste and the pollution. Secondly the paper focuses in particular on the impact of digital technologies over processes and actors involved, fostering practices based on distributed production.

The education for sustainability in design should be approached from the knowledge of global methods but taking
into account the contextualization of the tools and not the simple translation and use of methods developed outside
Colombia, using tools that connect with students and new ways of learning and facilitating the teacher the dissemination
of knowledge in a structured and concrete way. The (DSxC) aims to develop this support, always focusing
on the context and facilitate the student to understand and apply sustainable strategies to the development of their
projects in classroom.

Over this century we continue to look for the ideal conditions to generate sustainable ways of education. Many of
the significant actions lie the ways in how education relates to design and ecology. The new way of ecological design
thinking here proposed constitutes three fundamental aspects: reconnecting with nature, rediscovering nature and
reflecting on the ways in which we forecast our designs. The Symbiotic Design Practice provides a flexible integral
methodological framework for configuring teaching-learning elements that approach the new ecological profile that
the designer should have.

This study aims to identify points of convergence between the concepts of Ecomuseum and Social Innovation, from the point of view of Design. The concept of Ecomuseum, highlighting information such as the emergence of the concept, its objectives and characteristics will be developed. This article will also present the concept of design for social innovation and sustainability. The aim is to identify a framework that will allow classification of the concept of Ecomuseum as a sustainable social innovation initiative. It will start with an exploratory bibliographical research and in addition, it will be used documentary research. Design role will be highlighted, with its interdisciplinary and transversal vision capable of identifying solutions to the obstacles to a new model of life: sustainable, creative and that privileges the collective benefit over the individual.
