Repair workshops and festivals

Barcelona City council runs a repair workshop programme at civic and neighbourhood centres. This is intended to provide people with the necessary knowledge for repairing their own PCs, mobiles, tablets, etc., and small electrical appliances such as irons, toasters, blenders and so on.

The aim is to prevent the waste of electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) in Barcelona, so as to:

  • Save raw materials to make new appliances.
  • Avoid creating waste and therefore the environmental and economic costs of managing it.
  • Empower residents through the DIY culture, adding value to repairing and restoring.
