Welcome to Upstream Circularity

Discover how fashion can lead the way towards circularity with Upstream Circularity, a podcast produced by Global Fashion Agenda (GFA), a non-profit organisation that fosters industry collaboration on sustainability in fashion to accelerate impact. Across three upcoming episodes, host Faith Robinson speaks with industry experts working at the beginning, or upstream, of the fashion value chain to uncover practical insights for transforming waste into new resources. Rooted in the findings of The Upstream Circularity Playbook, this series breaks down real-world case studies and explores the technical innovations and systemic shifts needed to scale textile-to-textile recycling. In this introductory episode, Federica Marchionni, CEO, GFA, sets the stage for the series, breaking down the current state of circularity, the key challenges preventing large-scale implementation, and the solutions - driven by Global Fashion Agenda - already driving change in the industry. Tune in to explore how we can reimagine waste and accelerate circularity in fashion. Learn more at www.globalfashionagenda.org
