How could we make it more attractive for the general public to keep or give away household items and clothing than to dispose of them or buy new ones?

More about this event

In the cycle of things, our everyday objects and clothing are used multiple times, for longer through repair and for a different purpose through upcycling. This already works on a small scale - directly mediated via neighborhood apps, chats or online marketplaces, locally via second-hand clothing exchanges, flea markets, repair cafés, etc.

Sustainability can be experienced in the cycles of our everyday objects and clothing. In addition to the concrete, material conservation of resources, the cycle of things in the neighborhood and district also creates new contacts and human trust. And anyone who has ever repaired a beloved table or cup knows that less can be more: Objects can become more personally meaningful through your own efforts.

As part of the “Cycle of Things” challenge, we are asking ourselves: How could we make it more attractive for the general public to keep or give away household items and clothing than to dispose of them or buy new ones? How could we “strengthen” the existing, already promising initiatives, services and offers for sharing, passing on, reselling and repairing things?
