Building a repair culture in educational settings - Fixfest Online 2022
Channel: The Restart Project
Date: 27/10/2022

In this session from Fixfest Online 2022, Vita Wells from Culture of Repair invites speakers from the USA, Nigeria and Germany to share how they are bringing repair into educational settings. 

Through presentations and discussion we broadened our understanding of what repair in educational contexts might look like, addressing scope, objectives, implementation, relationship with other school subjects, and related topics.
