Lagos Space Programme is a non-binary fashion design project exploring traditions of Nigeria's Yoruba culture. Àdìrẹ, a resist-dyed indigo cloth historically made by the Yoruba, is a staple of Thompson's work. Their Post-Àdìrẹ project explores the future of this textile, and it role in storytelling. Working with creative Alexandra Weigand and a community of women dyers in southwestern Nigeria, Thompson seeks to reanimate traditional crafts, using them to speak to the concerns of the present, and the future.

Taken in the Exhibition
Africa Fashion
(July 2022 to April 2023)
The irresistible creativity, ingenuity and unstoppable global impact of contemporary African fashions are celebrated in an extensive display of garments, textiles, personal testimonies, photographs, sketches, film and catwalk footage in this exhibition. Many of the garments on show hail from the archives of iconic mid-twentieth century African designers – Shade Thomas-Fahm, Chris Seydou, Kofi Ansah and Alphadi. Alongside these are personal insights from influential contemporary African fashion creatives, including Imane Ayissi, IAMISIGO, Moshions, Thebe Magugu and Sindiso Khumalo, as well as highlights from fashion trends of the day, which are on display for the first time.
Foregrounding individual African voices and perspectives, the exhibition presents African fashions as a self-defining art form that reveals the richness and diversity of African histories and cultures. Africa Fashion celebrates the vitality and innovation of a selection of fashion creatives from over 20 countries, exploring the work of the vanguard in the twentieth century and the creatives at the heart of this eclectic and cosmopolitan scene today.
Across contemporary couture, ready-to-wear, made-to-order and adornment, the exhibition seeks to offer a close-up look at the new generation of ground-breaking designers, collectives, stylists and fashion photographers working in Africa today. It explores how the digital world accelerated the expansion of the industry, irreversibly transforming global fashions as we know them.

Enviroserve Rwanda Green Park and GIZ Eco-Emploi Programme in collaboration with Rwanda Utilities Regulatory Authority (RURA), and Rwanda Environment Management Authority (REMA) today launched a nationwide awareness campaign to build a sustainable e-waste management ecosystem in Rwanda.
The main aim of the campaign is to sensitize informal e-waste handlers to operate in fulfillment of national regulations governing e-waste management in Rwanda, which were launched in April 2018.
Part of the awareness campaign, Enviroserve has launched the first e-waste collection point which will be the central point for collection and interim storage of e-waste from Musanze district. Enviroserve aims to have e-waste collection points in all the 30 Districts of Rwanda.
