Last week, CEBIC's year two focus area - textiles, was launched at a special event hosted by the Monash Sustainable Development Institute (MSDI).
By tackling textiles – from clothing, footwear and furnishings to industrial textiles and fibres – CEBIC can help actualise the dual benefits of a circular economy, including reduced environmental harm and economic growth. We'll address this in true CEBIC style by bringing business, industry, government and community together through grants, events and information sharing.
The Circular Stories Guide, by the Circular Stories Working Group, was also launched at the event. The guide will help the Australian textile, clothing and footwear industry to explore circular economy opportunities.
