At Unoa we are all about body positivity and female empowerment, working closely to train women in the workplace and promote gender equality. We are also all about sustainable fashion and sustainable living. Which is why it's so important as females to understand how we can make a difference in the fight against plastic pollution and period poverty. Many women around the world are still shamed for their periods and suffer from period poverty. This could be due to the masculine concept that a woman's bodily functions are seen as monstrous as told by *Barbara Creed*. It’s still somewhat a taboo subject to speak openly about periods in general, when in reality it is a natural occurrence that happens to...
We love a revolution here at Unoa and having our name rooted in the Greek word, Eunoia, meaning Beautiful Thinking, we want this ethical and sustainable revolution that is sweeping the planet, to be a very beautiful one too. With that said, the title of this blog post and the slogan for our Charity T-Shirts will make perfectly beautiful sense to you. Having spent time in the business and money orientated world, we have all seen horrible quantities of harmful waste in the last few decades, and as things began to hit a monumental crescendo, with landfill sites filled to the brim around the planet, the backlash hit out – organisations everywhere are now fighting hard to prevent useable products...

Thankfully our conscience is growing in all the right places, thanks...
At Unoa we are working hard to join forces with the millions of individuals around the planet who are driving the Global Sustainability Revolution. The Global Sustainability Revolution is a term I thought I’d coined myself until I searched it and gladly found other people on completely the same wavelength – got to love the collective consciousness!

We see the future of fashion with revolutionary eyes, and...
