This Erasmus+ initiative aims to mitigate the environmental impact of apparel production by introducing tailor-made vocational education and training modules. VETRINE not only raises awareness about the adverse environmental footprint of the fashion industry but also incorporates learning modules that encompass the entire production cycle. This holistic approach includes considerations for material choices, design and sewing, energy consumption, distribution, and post-consumer habits like repair and recycling.

NOVEL’s role in VETRINE is to lead towards a new era of exploitation of available ICT resources. To be able to launch an information environment regarding methods & techniques related to green apparel production (QR-code & FashPass application)

Our primary goal is to

• To serve as a product dictionary for apparel products developed during or after project’s lifespan
• To share & disseminate green practices into the apparel sector across Europe aiming to the exchange of skills
• To improve skills intelligence & information mechanisms by creating networks & partnerships.
