WISESHIFT is a four-year Horizon Europe research project aiming to empower Work Integration Social Enterprises (WISEs) as key drivers of inclusive and sustainable socio-economic transitions.
The production and consumption of textile products continue to grow, together with their impact on the environment, due to a lack of reuse, repair and recycling of materials. Quality, durability, and recyclability are often not being set as priorities in the design and manufacturing of clothing. CISUTAC aims to remove current bottlenecks in order to increase textile circularity in Europe.
The 2LIFES project is meant to be an instrument to help boost re-use through public policies. Based on experience, 2LIFES partners have identified that re-use is often marginally and partially explored. However, when properly managed, re-use promotes environmental sustainability as well as employment and solidarity
The project aims to map RREUSE members’ existing activities in furniture and mattress circularity and facilitate knowledge sharing and partnerships among social enterprises within our network.
