To mark the United Nations International Year of Natural Fibres 2009 and the official launch of the IWTO Road Map a presentation has taken place on 18 March 2009 in the Renewable Energy House in Brussels. The event raised awareness and promoted the efficiency and sustainability of the natural fibre industries and wool as one of the most important natural fibres.

Speakers form the EU Commission, Food and Agricultural Organisatio, EURATEX and IWTO have drawn attention to the importance of natural fibres and wool, not only for the textile industry, but for the environment as such.
