Fashion Industry Charter for Climate Action
FICCA mission

The 2018 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5ºC highlights the urgency and scale of action required to keep the planet safe. On the brink of dangerous climate change, immediate action is required for the fashion sector too, to be aligned with the goals of the Paris Climate Change Agreement and move towards net-zero emissions by 2050.

UN Climate Change has initiated a broader climate action work program, convening fashion stakeholders to develop a coherent, unified position on climate. The work program aims to connect the diverse stakeholders in the fashion industry, including raw material producers, textile producers, apparel manufacturers and brands, to identify new areas for action and to scale up existing initiatives that connect the value chain.

Fashion Charter is an official partner of Race to Zero – a global campaign to rally leadership and support from businesses, cities, regions, investors for a healthy, resilient, zero carbon recovery that prevents future threats, creates decent jobs, and unlocks inclusive, sustainable growth.

Overview
The-Charter

Beginnings of the Charter

Under the auspices of UN Climate Change, fashion stakeholders came together during 2018 to identify ways in which the broader textile, clothing and fashion industry can move towards a holistic commitment to climate action. They created the Fashion Industry Charter for Climate Action which contains the vision to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, in line with keeping global warming below 1.5 degrees. The Fashion Industry Charter was thus launched at COP24 in Katowice, Poland, in December 2018 and renewed at COP26 in Glasgow, UK, in November 2021.

 

The Charter in action

With the renewed ambition for the Charter announced at COP26, the focus is now on collective action. To drive this forward, the Charter:​

  • Pioneered Fashion Industry’s commitments​
  • Incubated a safe platform​
  • Improved industry disclosures ​
  • Publishes Reports, white papers, and guidance documents​
  • Collaborates with industry associations and supporting organisations​
  • Showcases industry action​
  • Continues to strengthen signatories’ moves towards climate action​
  • Connects with existing solutions, programs and initiatives

Supporting Organizations

Organizations, also professionally engaged in the fashion sector, that are in a position to substantially contribute to the realization of the Fashion Industry Charter for Climate Action may also participate in this work.

Commitments

The Charter’s primary mission is to drive the fashion industry to net-zero GHG emissions no later than 2050. With the renewed ambition at COP26 for the Charter, emphasis is put on action. The Charter provides a plan pointing to key areas of focus in commitments and requires accountability through public reporting and preparation of reduction pathway plans to be submitted to UN Climate Change.

Signatories commit to key principles on climate action that go beyond industry-wide commitments:

1. Support the ambition of the Paris Agreement in limiting global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels by selecting one of the two options (a or b):

a. Setting SBTi approved science-based emissions reduction targets on scope 1, 2 and 3 within 24 months, in line with the latest criteria and recommendations of the SBTi; and commit to achieving net zero emissions no later than 2050;

OR

b. Setting at least 50 percent absolute aggregate GHG emission reductions in scope 1, 2 and 3 of the Greenhouse Gas Protocol Corporate Standard, by 2030 against a baseline of no earlier than 2019 and commit to achieving net zero emissions no later than 2050;

2. Quantify, track and publicly report GHG emissions on annual basis via CDP, consistent with standards and best practices of measurement and transparency;
3. Within 12 months submit relevant reduction pathway plans for the selected 2030 goal under commitment 1, as well as plans for goals 4-13, and provide updates every 3 years thereafter;
4. Ambitiously pursue energy efficiency across its own operations and value chain, for scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions;
5. Secure 100% of electricity from renewable sources with minimal other environmental or social impacts, for owned and operated (scope 2) emissions by 2030;
6. Source 100% of priority materials that are both preferred and low climate impact by 2030, ensuring that these do not negatively affect other sustainable development goals. This includes pursuing materials that are closed loop recycled, deforestation free and conversion free in their origins, apply regenerative practices, and that relevant verification and impact measurement mechanisms have been applied;
7. Creating engagement and incentive mechanisms for all relevant supplier sites (Tier 1 and 2 sites for brands and immediate sub-suppliers for producers) to implement approved science based aligned targets by the end of 2025 (as outlined above commitment 1.a), or to adopt a 50% absolute target by 2030 and net zero by 2050 (as outlined above in commitment 1.b);
8. Phasing out coal from owned and supplier sites (Tier 1 and Tier 2 for brands and immediate sub-suppliers for producers) as soon as possible and latest by 2030, including no new coal power by January 2023 at the latest, and creating engagement and incentive mechanisms for all relevant suppliers to support phase-out;
9. Commit to developing and implementing a company climate policy advocacy plan for net-zero emissions, aligning with collectively developed Fashion Charter policy recommendations including calling on governments to develop ambitious strategies that chart a clear path to achieving interim 2030 targets and net-zero emissions by 2050 at the very latest, and identifying relevant policy levers to support low carbon technologies and uptake of renewable energy;
10. Actively engage in building dialogue with financial institutions to share specific industry funding needs for delivery on shared Charter activities and increase understanding of investment needs and available funding sources for the industry transition;
11. Work with logistic service providers to transition to zero emission air, sea and road logistics for own and contracted transportation – including selecting logistics partners with transparent emissions data and goals to achieve zero emissions solutions, and reconfiguring company logistics plans for optimal GHG impact;
12. Align consumer and industry communication efforts to a 1.5-degree or SBTi compatible pathway, as set out by the Paris Agreement Goals, as well as a more just and equitable future;
13. Actively support the UN Climate Change secretariat and other Charter signatories in efforts to deliver shared Charter goals and manage the tracking and recognition of progress of the commitments outlined in the Fashion Industry Charter for Climate Action.

Tracking of Commitments

Over the past three years, the Fashion Industry Charter for Climate Action requested more than 100 signatories to respond to CDP’s Climate Change questionnaire administered through CDP Supply Chain. Each year, signatories who meet the annual scoring deadline are evaluated and assessed based on demonstrated transparency through disclosure, awareness of climate-related risks, environmental management, and environmental leadership reflecting best practice in climate strategy and actions for climate change mitigation.

Compared to an initial response rate of 73% in 2020, 89% of companies were compliant with the Charter in the last reporting cycle (2024), therefore meeting the requirement to respond to the UNFCCC’s CDP request. The 16% increase is a sign of growing transparency among the Fashion Charter industry group.

Delivery-Mechanism

Delivery Mechanism

Convened and facilitated by UN Climate Change, the Signatories and Supporting Organizations of the Charter work collaboratively to deliver on the principles enshrined in the Charter.

This is being done through established Steering Committee and signatory led projects, which are responsible for driving the work and success of the initiative. The Steering Committee and Charter projects serve as a platform to:

  • Support Signatories meet their climate targets, and,
  • Help drive long-term industry transformation in line with the goals of the Paris Climate Change Agreement.

Signatories to the Fashion Industry Charter for Climate Action are committed to support the implementation of the principles contained in it, both by pursuing the principles within their own organizations and by working collectively with other signatories. Delivery of the Fashion Industry Charter for Climate Action is through collective Projects, each having a focus on one or more of the principles in the Fashion Industry Charter for Climate Action.

Steering Committee

The Steering Committee is responsible for facilitating annual planning, advising on strategic matters, and to address any Charter structural matters that might arise.

Every two years, elections are held for eight seats on the Steering Committee. There are two types of seats on the Steering Committee: for brands/retailers and manufacturers, to reflect fashion charter value chain representation.

The current Steering Committee is comprised of the following people:
