It will create a sense and value of community through the cooperation of donation and creation of pieces together at the library.
It will promote aesthetic value
It will help improve the notion of emotional durability, because creating something with your own helps you connect better with it
It will help reduce thoughtless consumption
It will help promotenor neighborhood, as the new concept in the area will give it some recognition.
We need help from the local government in order to have a space for the library functioning. This space seems to be able to be procured with the help of tne neighborhood associations that will intercede for us to have a small office at the local culture center.

Our library will help people get organized about things they could reutilize and reouroose, it will teach them the value of circularity and sustainability and promote a sense of community through colaboration while donating materials for the library.
Among the effects is that people will learn to be more mindful of their consumption and promote creativity (for the repurposing of current possesions)
It will contribute to change the local fashion, as more unique pieces from the upcycles will be shown around, and it might even collaborate on changing the fast fashion consumption)

Along the last days i performed a small survey among people of different backgrounds.
The concept i am aiming for is not new, it is something that is widely used: libraries of used materials and reused clothes, however there is none in our community nor the nearby areas, hence, it can bring a sense of "newness" to the concept and spark curiosity from people in our community.
From the legal point of view, some of the people i spoke with wondered under what denomination we would have to operate.
Should we call it a recycle caffe? Or an after school program place (because of the possible classes we'll have)
When asking about the unforseen impact, someone mentioned that some people make take advantage and barely bring a piece of tshirt, but upcycle it to a whole new purse, for example. So in order to avoid these hapennings, a tight system should be created.

The 9 R strategies at the center of our entrepreneurship are as below:
Reduce and refuse-- the consumption of new
Reuse, repair, recycle and repurpose--the existing
As part of the main activities, we need to look for donors of materials, promote the shop on different platforms and edate people about it.
What do we do? How do we do it? Who can come to the shop?  What kind of materials do we receive? In what conditions? How can people contribute in other ways other than materials?
All of these questions should be answered through our social media sites.
We'll need to curate and organize the materials received, and plan for the classes.

The strategy i will use is that of upcycling through community building.
The community itself qill strengen the network, and possibly create a collective motive to maintan the upcycling river flowing. The classes and things they will be able to learn in our space willl enable them to strenghthen their views on the importance of circularity and environmental impact reduced through our actions at the library/attelier

Me: who will run the attelier
Local government: to provide a space for our library/attelier
Community neighbors: who will donate clothes to upcycle/make us of the space
Local shops: to donate some materials and/or help organize workshops

Platform + circular: we'll make use of existing and unwanted garmets, upcycling them to serve new purposes.
You come, bring the item you want to donate or make use of the space and materials available at the library in order to upcycle your item.
It can be anything with some aesthetic value, not only a piece of clothes.

# data[].attributes.body
Social value: it will ignite community work and provde a new focus for the local consummerism.
Aesthetic value: as people will be able to create pieces that match their styles
Environmental value: people in the community will learn about conscious and responsible consumption, the value of upcycling, circularity and sustainability by reusing objects already in their possesion.

To create a recycled fashion materials library/attelier to motivate and educate people about ethical fashion consumption and upcycling and repurposing  of diverse materials in our daily lives.
All this through classes and workshops taught by the same people in our community.
People can have access to te different workshops and claases by becoming a "donor" to the library or by paying a small fee that will be destined for running the library itself

People is constantly throwing away clothes, or in need of new ways to repurpose no longer needed garments.
So i would like to create a recycled fashion materials library/atelier. It can become a space for people interested in sustainable and/or circular fashion to find like minded people.
Some of the things to watch out for would be that, when such a seemingly "eco friendly" way of disposing things is readily available, people might not give it much thought for other methods of repurposing them (hence diminishing emotional durability, for example). Also, some pieces donated to the materials libary might not be in such a good condition as expected.
