Australasian Circular Textiles Association (ACTA)
CEO and Co-Founder
Camille is recognised as a world leader in fashion sustainability founding The Australian Circular Fashion Conference (ACFC), a unique annual event fostering collaboration between thought leaders within the apparel and textile sectors on circularity, sustainability, technology, and innovation.
The ACFC achieves this by shedding light on waste and consumption, which largely affects economic viability and longevity, particularly for the fashion industry, over the next 5-10 years.
Based upon her success with the conference, Camille has begun to develop the pillars required to underpin standardisation and industry requirements for extended producer responsibility and implementing circular design. Camille is elevating and innovating Australia’s local fashion and textile sectors through her continuous research; providing her network the most important and up-to-date information in order for the local industry to stay ahead of the curve.
Currently, she is building Australia’s newest and largest association: The Australasian Circular Textile Association, aka ACTA – The Voice of the Industry. ACTA is Australasia’s first collaborative industry association acting as the fulcrum for the broader textile industry to disseminate closed-loop education. ACTA engages with all verticals of the supply chain to save time and resources by joining the dots to achieve circular sustainable practice.
By 2030 ACTA will lead the first accredited government stewardship scheme for apparel in Australia and is already viewed as leading the conversation on behalf of the industry. The next 2-day ACFC conference will be held in late 2021.
