Between 29 November and 13 December 2025, the REPper Hub in Greece delivered a series of five training sessions in Thessaloniki under the title “Introduction to the Repair Economy.” Each session welcomed a different group of participants, allowing the programme to reach a broad and diverse educational audience.
The training sessions were designed specifically for adult educators and secondary education teachers, with the goal of strengthening their understanding of the repair economy and equipping them to transfer this knowledge to learners and communities.
With a total of 19 participants in the five training sessions, the initiative aimed to multiply its impact by embedding repair and circular economy principles into educational pathways.
What We Covered
All sessions followed a shared educational framework, combining theory with practical learning tools. Key elements included:
- Trainer’s Guide and Educational Seminar Plan
- Case studies illustrating real-world repair economy practices
- Worksheets focused on repair economy concepts and applications
- Interactive discussion and reflection with participants
What We Achieved
Early feedback from participants suggests strong interest in the topic and a clear potential for these sessions to support repair, reuse, and circular economy awareness through education.
Quoting a training participant, “a great opportunity to find out and learn about current trends and the use of new technologies.”
