Zero Waste Repair EventsRepair is a fundamental part of any circular system. When our items break, we need a way to fix them. The SRRI helped catalyze and provide strategic guidance for a new prototype - Zero Waste Repair Events - involving the City of Vancouver together with Free Geek, Repair Matters, Frameworq, and MetroVan Repair Cafes with the participation of Vancity staff.
Two events were held that engaged over 150 residents. The collaborative approach, data collection and promotion were tested and refined, and an attitude and interest survey was conducted at one event and four Vancity branches. Check out our Repair Working Group and Repair Events to learn more. |

Lighter Living FestivalThe Lighter Living Festival emerged as a prototype from an engagement process of the Share Reuse Repair Initiative (SRRI) in 2018 involving over 20 business, government, and community actors. At the festival, the public would be able to engage with SRR goods and services, and SRR innovators would have the opportunity to market and raise awareness for their goods and services while also gauging reception from the public. Attendees will learn about and engage in Lighter Living practices. The SRRI will utilize resources and connections to inform the development of a Lighter Living Festival with the City of Vancouver.
