Gender pay disparities remain embedded in Türkiye’s fashion manufacturing sector, according to a new insights paper published by Global Fashion Agenda (GFA). Drawing on factory surveys, union interviews and social compliance data, the study examines structural drivers of wage inequality and outlines coordinated actions for policymakers, brands, other buyers and suppliers.

The fashion industry now has a powerful tool to map its complex sustainability challenges. The Fashion Impact Toolkit, developed by Global Fashion Agenda and Deloitte, catalogues around 3,000 impacts across the textile value chain. Designed for strategic planning and accountability, it equips companies to track, assess, and address environmental and social harms from fibre to end-of-life.

The Global Fashion Agenda has come out with its new GFA Monitor that outlines tools and proven practices the fashion industry can draw on as it transitions its practices to becoming net positive. It highlights the current state of progress in key areas for action across the five sustainability priorities of the Fashion CEO Agenda.

The Global fashion Agenda (GFA) has launched ‘The Circular Fashion Partnership: Indonesia’ as a cross-sectoral initiative aimed at developing effective circular fashion systems by capturing and recycling post-industrial textile waste.

Despite the promise of circular fashion, the industry lacks a comprehensive system to support it and seeking to address this gap, Global Fashion Agenda has come up with a report that outlines three essential strategies fashion companies must implement to achieve a truly circular fashion system.

As the fashion industry continues to evolve, the insights and innovations presented at the Global Fashion Summit served as a powerful reminder that sustainable transformation is possible, but it requires collective effort, transparency, and a willingness to embrace new paradigms.

The Fashion CEO Agenda presents 5 socio-environmental sustainability priorities the industry should focus on to secure prosperity for people and communities while working within planetary boundaries.

And now human-centric storytelling will soon educate consumers on issues pertaining to social and environmental sustainability and also seek to galvanise leaders in the sector to follow the blueprint of those that have been successful.
