Το πρόγραμμα VETRINE εγκαινιάζει το μάθημα“Green Vetrine: μια εισαγωγή στον αειφόρο σχεδιασμό και την κατασκευή ενδυμάτων“, το οποίο θα είναι διαθέσιμο δωρεάν και διαδικτυακά από τις 13 Ιανουαρίου 2025. Σε αυτή τη σύντομη διαδικτυακή συνεδρία, θα παρουσιάσουμε το περιεχόμενο του μαθήματος και τον τρόπο πρόσβασης σε αυτό και θα συζητήσουμε τη φιλοσοφία πίσω από τη δημιουργία του με τους ειδικούς εταίρους που ανέπτυξαν το υλικό με βάση τις περιφερειακές και ευρωπαϊκές ανάγκες. Η παρουσίαση αυτή θα ενδιαφέρει άλλα εκπαιδευτικά ιδρύματα ΕΕΚ και τους εκπαιδευτές τους, τους επικεφαλής και τους εταίρους του προγράμματος Erasmus+, τους υπεύθυνους χάραξης πολιτικής για την εκπαίδευση και τη βιωσιμότητα. Για να μετρήσουμε τον αριθμό των συμμετεχόντων, σας ζητάμε να

The study contains the results of focus groups, a report on raw materials created by KAUNO Technologijos Universitetas (Lithuania), annalysis of Vocational Education and Training (VET) Educational Protocols carried out by partners AEG (Spain), “DIMITAR TALEV” (Bulgaria), CITEVE (Portugal) and EUROTRAINING (Greece), and an analysis of T&C national markets and prospect of applying sustainability concepts which is the result of research by ATP (Portugal), CEDECS-TCBL (France), CHIMAR (Greece), CENTEXBEL (Belgium), PIRINTEX (Bulgaria), TEXFOR (Spain).

Naturally, CITEVE is worth a visit. Their labs, their technology and sustainability projects, and their proximity with the industry notably through the ATP Association, were greatly appreciated, together with the well-known reputation of Portuguese hospitality and food.

After a first ice-breaking session, the meetings primarily focused on the progress being made in the “work packages” that are active in this first phase of the project: the VETRINE study, the Capacity Building Program and Dissemination and Sustainability.

We had very interesting conversations around the upcoming VETRINE study (which will be published on this website in the next few days!). We found that VET learners asked to be trained in a range of specialized new skills related to “sustainability”, a very broad concept that refers certainly to fair, durable and environmentally friendly pillars. On their side, the VET and HEI institutions expressed their will to propose up-to-date curricula. Altogether, with the companies in the market, the final goal is to increase the appeal of the textile and clothing sector (T&C) sector to younger generations in order to speed up its transformation.

This goal will be contributed to through the Capacity Building Program output of this project will be based on the above Study, and will produce an online curriculum based on micro lessons, video tutorials, interactive quizzes etc. that will hold the interest and attention of a younger generation of students. Each country involved in the CBP will contribute learning materials on such varied themes as raw materials, innovative design, engineering, transparency and traceability, and entrepreneurship. Learning will end with practical training in local T&C SMEs, to allow for a hands-on, practice-based project that will benefit the enterprise and the learner. The project’s dissemination and sustainability elements will help raise awareness and engage stakeholders and fellow projects (especially other Erasmus Plus projects), both at the European and local levels.

The focus group participant profiles corresponded to VET learners enrolled in textile courses that generally fit into the European Qualifications Framework (EQF) levels 4 and 5. With regards to market-linked participants, a wide range of the T&C sector was represented with the presence of small production companies, family businesses, freelance designers, designers with their own brands, fabrics producers and designers, sewing workshops, synthetic yarn producers, associations of chemists and colorists, consultants, hat manufacturers, spinning companies, ribbons and elastic band manufacturers, innovation and research centres, textile businesses associations, and so on. From the data collected, qualitative insights were gained leading to interesting conclusions that will help us guide our work.

At this early stage we can anticipate that this part of our work confirmed some of the early hypotheses that guided the creation of this project, namely that there are gaps in VET education related in particular to sustainability, as well as in technical knowledge and business operational knowledge. In the T&C industry, where an influx of trained figures for the next generation will certainly be a plus, there were concerns about knowing and meeting new sustainability requirements or legislations, appropriate certifications, and related costs.

The publicly available VETRINE Study is something to look forward to for stakeholders involved in VET training or any stage of the T&C value chain. This study will be published in July 2024 and will represent a summary of both the focus group results and the extensiv research being carried out by project partners on market analysis, materials and their impacts, and VET institutional structure. This work that is well underway is the backbone of the VETRINE project and will guide us in the creation of the capacity building programme.
