SUMMARY:Globally Connected @ FIT: Global Exchange\, Local Impact: Lessons from FIT’s IFFTI 2026 Delegation to Vietnam
DESCRIPTION:What happens when FIT goes global? Between April 13 and 17\, 2026\, a delegation of faculty from FIT New York City and FIT Florence traveled to Ho Chi Minh City to take part in the IFFTI Annual Conference\, hosted by RMIT University Vietnam\, bringing together leading fashion and textile institutes from around the world. \nSupported by the Center for Excellence in Teaching and the Office of International Programs\, FIT faculty shared ideas\, explored new approaches to fashion education\, and connected with an international network shaping the future of the industry. \nJoin us to discover what they learned\, from emerging global trends to innovative teaching practices\, and how these insights will directly impact the experience of students at FIT\, both in New York and Florence.
