In Italy, Un Ponte Per has been active for some time with projects that focus in particular on the area of Monza and Brianza, thanks to the support of a very active local committee and a wide network of collaborations with local realities. "Dress Green" is a project that fits into this sphere of intervention, with the aim of analysing the panorama of third-sector organisations involved in the collection of garments in good condition in Monza, and then providing tailoring skills to repair faulty clothes in good condition, thus reducing textile waste, providing support and opportunities for personal and professional development to women who are experiencing a period of social and economic hardship, offering them a way to improve their job prospects and overall well-being.
As an end result, citizenship will be sensitised to a more sustainable consumption and purchasing system also by acquiring skills on the problem of 'fast fashion' and its impacts on the environment and communities.
