Textile Exchange and Tapestry are coming together this New York Climate Week for an afternoon of direct and honest conversations on the need for system-level transformation to enhance climate resilience within the textile industry. A pair of panel discussions will address two critical and often-overlooked areas in need of restructuring: the role of growth in environmental impact, and the imperative for women in leadership.

These discussions will emphasize the need to reimagine industry practices and leadership dynamics from the inside to drive substantial, long-lasting change. By focusing on these systemic shifts, we aim to spotlight the urgent need for a comprehensive approach that moves the industry forward, addressing our collective responsibility to shape a more resilient future for the fashion industry by initiating change from within.
