MEASURING INDUSTRY progress
The report draws on insights from the Fashion Industry Target Consultation, a collaborative project by GFA and the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) active between 2022-2024. This initiative evaluated annually industry sentiment on key milestones needed to achieve a net positive fashion sector, providing a snapshot of target setting and measurements reporting across pivotal action areas. In 2024, 100 stakeholders from across six continents contributed to the consultation.
The insights are strategically placed throughout the report within their respective priority chapter, highlighting data from brands, producers/manufacturers, and the overall respondent aggregate. The full methodology and disclaimer can be found in the publication’s Annex.
