The Repair Club initiative aims to equip individuals with the knowledge and skills necessary to repair their own electronic devices, fostering a culture of sustainability and self-reliance.
We had the opportunity to engage hands-on with our devices, guided by volunteers, providing confidence and experience for future repairs.
π£ Yesterday we successfully launched the inaugural Repair Club. π£
Organized by Martin, in collaboration with the ELAB at the @fhi_mpg_de, the event brought us together to learn and share skills in repairing electronic devices, specifically focusing on replacing batteries in old-generation laptops. π» π
"Instead of buying new gadgets, a movement of volunteers wants people to repair their old ones to save them from landfill."
