Based on the findings from UNEP’s upcoming report, Sustainability and circularity in the textile value chain – Recommendations for action and a global roadmap, this event will provide a space to discuss and agree on concrete steps to be taken at the international level to aid implementation of the priorities identified in the report, with a focus on holistic actions for sustainable consumption patterns and circular business models.

The entire textiles value chain must work together to confront the consumption patterns that are the driver of harmful impacts, using tools such as circular business models and circular design. This shift is needed – not only to confront the drivers of the adverse impacts of textiles but to also highlight the solutions in terms of circular design and circular business models, bringing together everyone to walk the same path.
