Globally, the rapid expansion of the textile supply chain has resulted in a massive increase in the production and consumption of clothing, leading to a loss of connection between consumers, their clothes, and the makers. Additionally, this has led to the marginalisation of skilled workers in local communities who work to maintain a traditional way of using biomaterials in textile products. To highlight the significance of these networks and the importance of supporting them, textile expert Stijntje Jaspers will provide insights and examples of successful textile value networks established by local communities worldwide. This will offer a deeper understanding of how we can transform our textile value chain and promote sustainability in the industry.
