UNEP, Better Cotton Initiative, Pesticide Action Network (PAN) UK, and ZDHC, as co-conveners of the Textiles Industry Sector Programme under the Global Framework on Chemicals (GFC), invite you to contribute to the programme’s Terms of Reference (TOR) and participate in the Textiles sector programme. The TOR builds upon previous discussions at the industry-focused GFC Implementation Programme Workshop in Paris (February 2025) and the textile sector breakout discussion at the GFC OEWG meeting in Uruguay (June 2025).
- We welcome participation from brands, manufacturers, suppliers, chemical companies, policymakers, and civil society organisations across the textiles value chain.
- This consultation will provide an opportunity to share insights, align priorities, and contribute to the development of practical and scalable solutions.
- Together, we can accelerate progress toward a safer, more sustainable, and resilient textiles industry.
- Join the online consultation and help shape the future of chemicals management in textiles.
The online consultation will be held on 23 July at 14:00-15:30 CEST / 15:00-16:30 EAT.
You can review the Terms of Reference (TOR) here. Please send feedback by 24 July 2026 on the TOR to: unep-textiles@un.org.
