## Resource

Next year, a government pilot program will launch to repair clothes and shoes, backed by a new EU directive forcing textile producers to fund garment collection and reuse. Designed to revive mending skills and support repair businesses, the initiative responds to rising demand and a nationwide shortage of specialized training—especially for leather goods. Fashion designers endorse the shift, promoting “buy less, buy better, repair more” to extend garment lifespans. Designers will contribute to a national fund supporting circular economy projects, creating jobs while building a more sustainable fashion future.
