ABOUT THE COLLECTION
Cases are a popular and effective educational tool for students to learn and apply business concepts to real-life situations, strategies, and dilemmas. Cases provide an overview and background information associated with an issue or problem a company is facing. Students are then asked to review and analyse the background material, evaluate multiple alternative solutions, recommend and justify an optimal solution for the company, and predict outcomes of the solution. Cases provide the opportunity to apply and practice analytic, evaluative, and communication skills.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE
If you have ever considered getting published, then this is a great opportunity to share your knowledge with fashion stakeholders. We invite you to share your interest with us. To give you an idea, we have researchers and educators working on topics such as sustainability, luxury, branding, cultural and historical contexts.
Email us at contact@ciafe.org with the subject matter 'Write for Bloomsbury', and we will take it from there.
