The main objective of the Refer project is the establishment of an international network of novel, education-driven and repair-based events/cafés.
For the production of this video I have participated in numerous repair cafés across Trentino region and talked to various repair volunteers and local project partners.
The project coordinated by HIT- Hub Innovazione Trentino has done a tremendous job in raising the awareness of critical raw materials in wider society through these electronic repair events. The public attended these events in which their electronics were repaired, but during the process, they also engaged in discussions and were informed about pressing CRM related issues, proposed solutions, and how they can help.
