The Working Group for Sustainable Consumption and Production (HPK) and the Working Group on Waste (NAG) of the Nordic Council of Ministers hereby call for a project to share the Nordic experience with sustainable consumption and production in the textile and fashion sector at the global level through the 10 Years Framework Program for Sustainable Consumption and Production (10YFP).
Background
The fashion and textile sector is one of the most polluting and resource demanding industries globally. This is caused by its huge consumption of energy, water, chemicals and pesticides, which causes negative effects on the environment including the working environment. Many different activities to reduce the environmental and health effects caused by production and consumption of textiles in the Nordic countries are being carried out by the Nordic Council of Ministers, the Nordic countries and the private sector in the Nordic countries.
A number of these activities have developed guidelines/tools that provide useful information on sustainable production and consumption of textiles for the global value chain of textiles. To facilitate the sharing of the Nordic experience globally it is under the Nordic Action Plan for Sustainable Fashion and Textiles and by the Working Group for Sustainable Consumption and Production (HPK) ( proposed to include textiles under the 10 Year Framework on Sustainable Consumption and Production Patterns (10YFP).
Aim
The aim of the project is to support information exchange on the possibilities for increasing sustainable consumption and production in the textile and fashion sector at the global level based on Nordic experiences and work.
The target group
The target group is decision makers and officials in the Nordic countries together with National Focal points for the 10 Years Framework Program for Sustainable Consumption and Production.
