Clothing Product Stewardship – Stakeholder Engagement Launch
Zoom Town Hall Meeting – Wednesday 2 February at 3pm AEST
The Australian Fashion Council and Consortium members – Charitable Recycling Australia, QUT, Sustainable Resource Use and WRAP – invite you to a webinar briefing and stakeholder engagement session on the National Clothing Product Stewardship Scheme.
As a key stakeholder in Australia’s National Approach to Fashion Circularity, please join us online on Wednesday 2 February, 3:00 PM – 4:30 PM AEST to provide your feedback on how the sector can best navigate and respond to the environmental and social impact of clothing in Australia.
The purpose of the webinar is to:
- Initial Briefing – Provide an initial briefing on the Federal Government’s $1 million grant for the Australian Fashion Council-led consortium to design, develop and implement a Product Stewardship Scheme for Clothing, along with a National Roadmap for Clothing in Australia.
- Stakeholder Feedback – Gain feedback from all stakeholders in the clothing value chain, including producers/brands, retailers, reuse charities, commercial collectors, repair, recycling, remanufacturing, State Governments, councils plus academia, industry experts and others.
- Additional Sessions – Identify what additional stakeholder engagement sessions, working groups and discussions we will need to help co-design the most effective scheme possible for the Australian market.
This webinar will be the first of a series of interactions that we will deliver to the industry members who represent every element of the value chain in fashion circularity.
Join us to start the conversation, to hear more about the proposed Scheme and determine what your role is in ensuring Australia’s fashion textile industry is making a difference now and for future generations.
