Sustainable Apparel Forum successful in exchange of knowledge

Sustainable Apparel Forum (SAF) was held in Bangladesh, May 17 and 18. It was the first ever symposium devoted to the transfer of knowledge and networking around the topic of sustainability in the textile industry.

It shared information on sustainability issues in the apparel industry. SAF wanted to accelerate the momentum within the industry through education, awareness and reducing the knowledge gap.

Over 30 national and international speakers discussed about various issues such as saving water, resources and costs, energy efficiency, optimising energy consumption and reducing costs, green factories and sustainable financing.

The objective of the sessions was facilitating a meaningful exchange of knowledge to make sustainability easier to be exercised by factories and individuals.

The sessions were devised to discussing practical aspects of the daily operations at factories, rather than general discussions, to take Bangladesh a step forward as a responsible sourcing destination in the global map.

There are already 67 LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certified green garment factories in Bangladesh while 222 more are in the offing.

Globally renowned experts spoke on apparel sustainability issues based on the needs of business and customers' expectations and provided hands-on training, pragmatic knowledge and professional skills through specialised workshops.
