PayItForward - Digital solutions for increased reuse of textiles
The textile industry faces major challenges to reduce its climate impact. This feasibility study addresses how digitization can help increase the amount of clothing that is reused while providing social benefits through the activities of voluntary organizations.
The feasibility study investigates the conditions for more efficient e-commerce, with the aim of increasing the lifespan of more products through the sale of recycled goods.
The project takes its starting point from the needs of recycling organizations, existing business models, and digital toolboxes. With this as a background, the possibilities for sustainable, digital development for voluntary organizations are investigated. Currently, they are limited in their development work and often rely on voluntary work efforts, but with this project, the ambition is to create opportunities for them to move forward together, with digitization as leverage, and enable more recycled goods to reach the end consumers.
The feasibility study is led by RISE, other key actors participating in the work are Lund University, Myrorna, Björkåfrihet, Stadsmissionen (Stockholm/Göteborg), Erikshjälpen, Röda Korset.
