Making the fashion sector more intelligent and greener is an interconnected objective. The project “IG-Fashion – Towards and intelligent and green approach in VET fashion design” is thus aiming at coupling “intelligent” teaching methods and tools with the objective of a greener fashion sector, corresponding to both the ways (vocational) education is transformed through technology advancements, as well as to the urging need to minimize the environmental aggravation of the fashion sector in general. Methodologically the project is focusing on the design phase in the fashion sector. However, it considers the whole supply chain in fashion production as equally important throughout all the preparatory, research, and development activities.

IG-Fashion provides trainers and schoolteachers with innovative training/teaching approaches and tools, which in turn will do two things:

• first, the fashion teachers’ and trainers’ professional profiles will be enhanced and modernized, especially in terms of the technological leaps affecting education, and are connected not only with the use of traditional IT tools but also artificial intelligence.
• second, the employability in fashion-related professions, which are increasingly affected by new technologies, as well as environmental concerns, will be boosted, since present and future professionals in the sector will acquire the needed knowledge and skills for an “intelligent and green fashion sector”.
