The RE-PARAR project, an initiative of Circular Economy Portugal in partnership with ACR+ member Cascais Ambiente during an online seminar. The session revealed the main goals of this initiative and the first results of its pilot project. RE-PARAR aims to raise awareness of the importance of repair as one of the most relevant R's in the circular economy and thus promote repair as a circular and sustainable alternative to the disposal and consumption of new objects and equipment.

In Cascais, professional repairers and existing repair shops in the municipality have already been mapped in different categories from sewing, household appliances/electronics to computers, among others, so that citizens have easy access to this information.
