Abstract
- The article offers information on a design brief initiated by the New Zealand Police to address barriers faced by Muslim women in joining the force, specifically related to the absence of a hijab as part of the standard uniform. Topics include the Police's consultation on international police forces' practices; the interdisciplinary course at Massey University focused on accessible and inclusive fashion design; and the significance of the project in promoting inclusion and cultural diversity.
