Are the ground-breaking new metrics developed by the European Environment Agency (EEA) sufficient to measure progress towards circularity and sustainability of textiles in Europe, or do we need more?

The EEA’s Circularity Metrics Lab Textiles Module has developed a set of metrics to monitor environmental performance and circularity uptake in the textiles sector. In this webinar, the EEA will present these metrics and engage with a group of experts and stakeholders to discuss:

• The strengths and weaknesses of the metrics
• Best practices for using the metrics effectively
• Improving data collection and quality moving forward, and the role of stakeholders
• How the metrics can inform target setting and decision making
• Additional metrics needed, including those that address social and economic progress

This webinar is organised by the Sustainable Fashion Academy, which aims to accelerate progress towards science-based sustainability targets and the SDGs by leveraging the power and influence of the apparel and textiles industry. It will take place at 14:00-15:15 CEST on 1 April. It will be in English.
