The Ethical Fashion Forum was founded in 2006 as a collaborative movement to transform social and environmental standards in the fashion industry.

In 2005, a group of fashion entrepreneurs and business owners got together in London. They had a common objective - to build successful fashion businesses with a positive impact for people and the environment.
Today, the Ethical Fashion Forum supports its global network through the new Common Objective platform.
Ethical Fashion Forum established with 20 founding members, spanning four continents.
EFF's SOURCE platform launched, combining the world’s leading sustainable sourcing database with a global online network, intelligence platform, and annual sourcing events for the fashion industry.
The next phase of the EFF - Common Objective aims to make sustainability a commercial opportunity for all fashion businesses. Free and open to the entire industry, CO is a fundamental tool that helps users do fashion better.

In 2016, the Ethical Fashion Forum decided to take its work to scale by developing a new online platform.
Launched in May 2018, Common Objective (CO) matches users with the connections and resources they need to do fashion better.
CO's mission is to create a level playing field, in which sustainable fashion becomes an opportunity, rather than a cost.
The platform is free to join – and open to all. Find out more – and become a member at www.commonobjective.co
