Progetti Europei:

The fashion industry is notoriously polluting: the different stages of the supply chain (production, distribution, use and disposal) are harmful due to waste generation, irresponsible consumption of resources and use of harmful substances. Of these, the design phase of a product is one of the most impactful on ‘environmental impact, amounting to more than 80 percent of the entire product-related environmental footprint. This scenario, already a concern in itself, has been further exacerbated by the growth of the Fast Fashion model in Europe. To address this problem, today several fashion brands are using digital technologies that have enabled the spread of many applications of AI in this sector. Trend detection, machine-assisted design, customer experience, and smart clothing are just some of the areas where the application of AI is most widespread.

The project aims to integrate artificial intelligence into the educational curricula of vocational and high schools to provide teachers with innovative teaching tools so that they can create additional employment opportunities in the professions related to the entire fashion industry production chain.
