Within the Circular Entrepreneurship program, DOEN supports pioneers who, among other things, work on circular textiles through high-quality reuse (up-cycling) of raw materials such as Loop.a Life, MUD, Reblend and Unrecorded. In Kenya, however, this development is still in its infancy, while there is a need for new initiatives that are committed to more reuse of raw materials and also create employment. Africa Collect Textiles (ACT) is a circular company that collects second-hand textiles and footwear in Kenya for as much reuse of the materials as possible, thereby creating and selling new products such as shoes, bags and carpets. In the coming years ACT wants to grow from 10 to 50 collection points in order to give an average of 50,000 kg of textile a new destination per year and thus reduce the environmental impact of the current linear system.
