Frequently Asked Questions

At WONENA, we amplify the voices of artisans, designers, and brands worldwide committed to sustainability, culture, and community. Our name, derived from Chichewa, meaning "the teller," reflects our mission to give visibility and amplify those working to improve the fashion industry.

Fashion should respect the earth and its people; every small step toward sustainability counts. By handpicking brands and designers who align with these values, we ensure that each product on our platform reflects a dedication to ethical practices, sustainability, and community empowerment.

Birds symbolize our brands, representing a value, a community, or a group advancing through purposeful efforts. Like in the wild, there is always a birdwatcher—observing, admiring, and ensuring their efforts are recognized and documented in the Bird Registry.

BIRDWATCHER: Our Lens for Conscious Efforts

While WONENA’s primary goal is to amplify the voices of our 'birds' (brands), the BIRDWATCHER's goal is to observe and highlight the deliberate strides these brands make toward building a better world.

By completing a short questionnaire, we identify and recognize brands that have made meaningful strides in sustainability, ethical labor practices, and social impact. Once a brand is approved and confirmed to meet our Minimum Required Value, we showcase it and its values across our website and feature it in our Valued Brands Directory, also known as the Bird Registry.

BIRDWATCHER isn't just a rating—it's a signal that highlights the brands genuinely making a difference, ensuring their efforts are visible and celebrated.

How We Evaluate Brands

Brands are assessed through the Birdwatcher Questionnaire, ensuring they align with at least one of our core principles:

🔹 Planet – Sustainability through eco-friendly materials, responsible sourcing, and waste reduction.
🔹 People – Fair labor, diversity, inclusion, and community empowerment.
🔹 Ethical Values – Transparency, accountability, and integrity in business practices.


We prioritize transparency and are committed to amplifying our brands' efforts for our customers. We regularly evaluate their impact on People 💚 and the Planet 🌎, staying updated on their labels and certifications to ensure their dedication to sustainability and ethical practices.

We offer a space to grow for brands that may not yet meet these standards but are actively working toward improvement. WONENA is a platform for brands committed to progress, and we’re here to support them every step of the way.

Wonena stands for fashion with purpose, where brands embrace responsibility toward people, the planet, and ethical integrity. Our brand is built on values beyond trends, focusing on sustainability, ethical practices, and community empowerment. 

To be part of Wonena, a brand must meet a fundamental standard: the Minimum Wonena Value.

What is The Minimum Wonena Value?

Our baseline requirements include:

 Align with at least one core principlea commitment to People, Planet, and/or Ethical Values.
 Show transparency—in their supply chain, labor practices, and environmental impact.
 Commit to progress—actively working to improve those core principles that are not met yet.

Beyond the Minimum: Striving for Impact

Brands that go beyond the minimum standard contribute more significantly—whether by using fully sustainable fabrics, supporting artisan communities, reducing water waste, or ensuring ethical labor practices. Wonena is here to amplify those voices, highlighting brands making genuine efforts toward sustainability and social responsibility.
