In the coming period, the focus will be on:

• Bringing together businesses, governments, and knowledge institutions to jointly shape the action plan and work on its implementation
• Translating actions into four strategic lines: facilitating collaboration, digitalization and automation, the use of renewable resources, and the development of sustainable business models
• Aligning existing and new initiatives with policy goals and legislation, such as the Circular Textile Policy Programme 2025–2030 and the EU Strategy for Sustainable and Circular Textiles
• Building support and shared ownership among government, industry, and knowledge institutions

CLICKNL stimulates collaboration across the textile chain and coordinates the Actionplan Circular Textiles to spark a movement. Within this network, we organize meetings and working sessions to share knowledge, refine and initiate actions, and foster cooperation. Where needed, external expertise is brought in to strengthen the process.
