Backed up by Barcelona Activa (Barcelona City Council Local Development Agency which develops an ambitious employability and entrepreneurship plan), the RevESStim Tèxtil programme offers different training proposals for initiatives in the sector. On the one hand, there is the sustainable textile entrepreneurship programme, and on the other hand, there are specific capsules that are updated every year according to the needs of initiatives and professionals in the sustainable textile and SSE sector. It contemplates all types of projects from the idea phase or initial stage in relation to sustainable textiles and covers all stages from production to sale, manufactures or produced by third parties as well as services related to the textile bussiness.Its goals are to guide, help and inform the creators of economically, socially and environmentally sustainable textile projects, grounded in the current reality and capable of generating innovation. It offers a step by step follw-up of all the important aspects and processes when starting up and carrying out a viable socio-economic project.The keys to this programme are:
-practical application of the concepts, through creative and appropriate solutions for each case.
-promotion of collaboration, synergies and complementarity between the participating projects.
-the ESS (social and solidarity economy) perspective on all areas and spaces of the project and the environment. The itinerary is structured upon a 3-stage process (conceptualisation, project development and strategic viability and communication and marketing) that combines training sessions and group advice with the training team specialising in sustainable textiles from the Fasolà cooperative and masterclasses with leading experts in the field of sustainable textiles from the Sustainable Fashion Association of Barcelona.
