Workshop: How to increase selective collection and prepare for the reuse and recycling of textile waste

The Portuguese Ministry of the Environment and Climate Action (MAAC), the Portuguese Agency of the Environment (APA), and the European Commission (EC) invite you to participate in a workshop to validate drivers and barriers on how to increase the collection and reuse of textile waste.The workshop’s presentations will be held in English, but there will be the possibility of asking questions in Portuguese. Workshop activities will be conducted in Portuguese.

The validation of barriers and opportunities is critical to ensure the development of appropriate strategies for separate collection and preparation for reuse and recycling of textile waste. And the validation and prioritization can only be carried out with your contribution as an expert in the field.

By joining this event, you will also:

• Engage in discussions about the existing barriers and opportunities faced by municipalities;
• Meet other key stakeholders from the sector;
• Have access to APA and MAAC;
• Secure your participation in the forthcoming activities, where recommendations for each waste fraction will be developed.
