This webinar launched the UN Environment Programme report, Sustainability and Circularity in the Textile Value Chain: Global Stocktaking. The report provides an analysis of the environmental and socio-economic hotspots along the entire textile value chain and looks at a range of associated impacts, as well as at how different stages in the value chain are dominant in different impacts.
Discussion questions:
What are the environmental and socio-economic impacts of the textile value chain?
What are priority actions to create a circular and sustainable textiles industry?
How can we accelerate the shift to circularity in established brands and producers?
What financial innovations support the development of circular business models, especially for SMEs?
What kinds of policy frameworks enable a shift to circular business models, including incentives for changes in consumer behaviour?
