UNIT 6
Exercise
Organize a community event to repair and repurpose food containers and kitchen appliances to reduce food waste. Encourage participants to bring in items that need repair, such as broken Tupperware containers or malfunctioning blenders, and provide tools and resources for repairing and repurposing them.
Example
A local community center hosts a Repair Café focused on food waste reduction. Participants bring in items such as damaged reusable food containers, dull knives, and broken kitchen appliances. The event provides repair tools and tutorials on how to fix and repurpose the items.
As a result, many of the items are repaired and given a new life, reducing the amount of food waste and saving money for the participants.
