In Sebokeng on Thursday, the Gauteng Provincial Legislature’s Portfolio Committee on Community Safety invited law enforcement to account for their role in responding to the recent looting, violence and destruction of property that escalated from Kwa-Zulu Natal to Gauteng.
The committee said, “The portfolio committee has noted with regret the dithering and slow response by police which made it possible for the unrest to prolong, causing more damage to the economy and job losses; this at a time when the country is on a path to recover from the harrowing effects of Covid-19.”

As part of a NIST initiative on Facilitating a Circular Economy for Textiles, we are planning to host a workshop to discuss challenges, gaps, and needs regarding textile circularity. The workshop participants, consisting of industrial, academic, nonprofit, and government stakeholders will discuss means for creating value via the circular economy, and among other issues, what data and standards might be necessary to accomplish this goal.
Potential topics for the workshop include:
Brand perspectives on textiles and the circular economy (e.g., consumer opinions on circularity, marks or certification of circular processes)
Technical challenges and needs for chemical recycling of textiles (e.g., availability of methods, feedstock contamination)
