The world of textiles is in a process of transformation - new technologies, globalization and ecology are the three main forces influencing this process with the usual pressure on resources, markets and fashion. At the same time, improving the European quality of education and training system has made it a key goal of Europe's strategy to become a smart, sustainable and inclusive economy by 2020 (Council of the European Union, 2010). DARE2WOW brings together 7 organizations from across Europe to support the development, transfer and implementation of innovative practices that promote collaboration, learning and exchange of experience in the production and exploitation of textiles.
