A Blueprint to revitalise skills and jobs in the TCLF Sectors in Europe

The need to anticipate and enhance adequate skills and learning methods as well as to attract and qualify workers has brought together 21 public and private stakeholders of the Textile, Clothing,
Leather, and Footwear (TCLF) sectors under a strategic 4-year Erasmus+ project called “Skills4Smart TCLF 2030”.

The aim of the project is to create a robust and sustainable community of private and public actors across Europe, which will re-shape and update skills and education in these traditional yet dynamic and innovative sectors within an EU-wide skills strategy. During a two-day meeting in Brussels, the Blueprint partners from 9 EU countries participated in the kick-off meeting of “Skills4Smart TCLF 2030”, an ambitious project co-funded by the European Commission under the Erasmus+ programme to attract, upskill and develop innovative learning methods for the workers of Textile, Clothing, Leather, and Footwear (TCLF) companies in Europe.
