How Data Transparency Can Transform Textile Reuse

When you drop off a piece of clothing, do you know where it goes? Jennifer Wang, CEO of Full Cycle Resource Consulting is our guest on episode #33 of the Sustainable Solutions with planet Aid podcast with your hosts Monica Johnson and Haley Chitty. Jennifer calls for transparency and dives deep into the journey of your donations. From the sorting facilities to resale markets, every step impacts lives, especially in places like Guatemala, where secondhand clothing plays a vital role in the economy. Understanding the process behind textile reuse can change how we view our donations. It’s crucial to know that our choices have real-world consequences, affecting livelihoods and local economies. Let’s keep the conversation going about sustainability and the role we play in it! You can also watch on planetaid.org/podcast.
