This book covers a wide array of topics on skills development in the informal textile and fashion sectors of some developing economies in Africa. The context of informal learning in the textiles and fashion industry of developing economies is rich and diverse, encompassing a wide range of traditional skills, knowledge, and expertise passed down from generation to generation. However, there is a dearth in literature that addresses how skills development in the informal sector of the textiles and fashion industry are promoted to enhance decent jobs and the sustainability of the crafts of individuals.

To fill this gap, this book explores how informal learning could enhance the knowledge and skills development of individuals in the informal sector of the textiles and fashion industry, to enable them to contribute to the economic development of their country and engage in cleaner production practices that serve to preserve the environment. Additionally, this book investigates how informal learning in the fashion industry could facilitate cultural exchange between regions and ethnic groups. Last but not least, this book provides a comprehensive overview of how small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the textiles and fashion industry could be supported to develop their business, and to also train more apprentices in the informal sector of developing economies. It serves as a valuable resource for researchers, policymakers, and practitioners working in the informal sector of the textiles and fashion industry.
