The updated EU Industrial Strategy highlights the need to accelerate the green and digital transitions of EU industry and its ecosystems. To that end, it proposed cooperation between industry, public authorities, social partners and other stakeholders to develop a Transition Pathway for the Textiles Ecosystem.
The Textiles Ecosystem Transition Pathway, published in June 2023, identified eight areas of action to accelerate the green and digital transitions necessary for the textile sector. These include:
- Sustainable Competitiveness
- Regulation & Public Governance
- Social Dimension
- Research & Innovation, Techniques, and Technological Solutions
- Infrastructure
- Skills
- Investments & Funding
- Readiness to Support EU's Strategic Autonomy and Defence Efforts
-
A number of these areas of action are directly linked with government & industry efforts and emerging impacts, to support sustainability and circularity in the EU. However, this document serves more as a guidance document rather than a policy initiative to be implemented.
