Kickstarting Climate Action Online Program for apparel brands and retailers – Fall 2024

Today apparel brands and retailers – and all companies working with textile and apparel – are expected to have robust climate targets and a credible climate action strategy that is being implemented, not only to meet stakeholder expectations, but also to comply with current and future legislation. To ensure companies understand the importance of climate action for business success and to help them quickly get up to speed on what is required to start and accelerate their climate work, STICA is now offering a Kickstarting Climate Action Online Program. The series provides companies with an introduction to climate action as well as tips on how to start working with climate action.
