PalmaThe Pere Garau neighborhood now has Palma's first object library, a community initiative that functions as a "library of things" and will allow neighbors to borrow objects for occasional use. The project is promoted by Pere Garau Saludable, LUP, Repair Cafe Palma, and Flipau amb Pere Garau, with the goal of promoting responsible consumption, the circular economy, and savings.
The Object Library will offer DIY tools, utensils for household repairs, and other items that are usually bought even though they are only used a few times. In a first phase, the promoting entities have selected about twenty objects and are now calling on neighbors, entities, and businesses in the neighborhood to donate others that are in good condition. The loan system, which will be free, will begin within a maximum period of three weeks.
In addition to facilitating the loan of objects, the Object Library plans to organize activities related to repair, recycling, knowledge exchange, and sustainability.
