To reduce the ecological footprint, we need to use products for longer, as the consumption of resources in their production is the most important environmental factor. Repair is an essential tool for this. In addition to ecological reasons, social and economic aspects also speak in favour of more repair. It creates skilled jobs and can have positive effects on social recognition and relationships. Although interest in repair is growing and many initiatives and networks are working to strengthen it, there is a shortage of skilled workers and young people, closures of long-standing repair businesses and continued high demand for short-lived products.

Against this background, the Berlin Senate Department for Mobility, Transport, Climate Protection and the Environment (SenMVKU) organised an online expert dialogue on the topic of "Promoting repair through networks and repair bonuses" on 6 June 2023. Good practice examples were presented and potentials, challenges and measures to promote repair were discussed with the participation of experts from business, civil society and politics.
