Creating local repair services

Description

Creating local repair services involves establishing accessible facilities and skilled personnel to restore and maintain products, equipment, or infrastructure within communities. This strategy directly addresses issues of waste, resource depletion, and economic dependency by extending product lifespans, reducing landfill, and fostering local employment. By enabling timely, affordable repairs, it empowers communities to be more self-reliant, supports circular economy principles, and mitigates the environmental and social impacts of premature disposal and replacement.
