The University of Huddersfield will host The 92nd Textile Institute World Conference (TIWC) from 3-6 July 2023.

The conference theme, "Sustainability of the Textile and Fashion Supply Chain – Transitioning to Zero Carbon and Zero Waste," focuses on identifying sustainable practices throughout the entire textile and fashion supply chain, from raw materials to end-of-life phases.

The conference will address strategies to manage the impact of the textile and fashion supply chain on the environment and climate change, aligning with global initiatives to move towards zero carbon emissions.

Academic and industrial experts will cover sub-themes such as Future Fashion, Composites, Green Skills, Dyes, Pigments, and Polymer, Nonwovens, and Technical Textiles.

The conference aims to benefit the industry through the triple helix model of academic-industry-government dialogues and create a roadmap for achieving zero carbon ambitions before 2050.
