In our inaugural episode, we welcome Kim Hanna, President of the International Cotton Association, to discuss the ICA’s role in the cotton industry, as well as her own remarkable journey to becoming the ICA’s first female President. Kim shares her experiences in navigating the primarily male-dominated industry and her efforts to promote diversity and inclusion through initiatives like Women in Cotton. Her vision as President focuses on fostering inclusivity, addressing industry challenges, and collaborating with brands and retailers on sustainability and traceability initiatives.

The episode underscores the ICA's commitment to bridging gaps in the industry, advocating for fair trade practices, and sharing the positive impact of cotton production worldwide.

Hosts: Eimear McDonagh, Camille Cluzel, Katie Farren
