#OttawaONT - September #RepairCafé (no ticket required; FREE EVENT)
Zibi, 28 Booth Street, Ottawa
Saturday, September 26th, 2026, from 10am until 2pm."#RepairCafés are opportunities for all #Ottawa & area residents to feel purpose and belonging – whether as a visitor or volunteer – to save money, learn new skills and foster a culture of repair! Repair Cafés directly divert items from our local landfills and reduce our environmental impact, while allowing our community to engage in accessible climate action!
Repair Cafés are an international concept that has come to the National Capital Region with the goal of reducing landfill waste, teaching new skills, and building community!
Our past Repair Cafés have been very successful with volunteers fixing dozens of items and sharing their knowledge around everything from darning socks to re-wiring kettles.
It's first-come, first-served, so please be prepared for the chance of extended wait times. Though we work as quickly and efficiently as we can, the popularity of these events is increasing and we can never tell what kind of wait there may be for us to see your item. We ask for your patience and kindness - remember, we are all on this repair mission together! :)
This event is sponsored by the Dream Community Foundation and hosted by Zibi and is free of charge. This listing is for information purposes only. All registration occurs onsite. You DO NOT HAVE TO REGISTER via Eventbrite, but a donation to support these great initiatives is always appreciated and helps cover expenses for volunteers. Note that if you kindly donate it does not mean you get to skip the line or show up as we are closing down with the expectation that someone will see your item.
Support provided from EPRA enables us to safely recycle any items that are not able to be repaired at the Repair Café."

#Aotearoa / #NewZealand - #RepairFestival 2026
"The Aotearoa New Zealand-wide Repair Festival was launched in September 2024, successfully bringing together the many Repair Cafés, businesses, organisations, and Councils that are joining the growing Repair Community. In 2025, we saw an even higher and broader participation, leading to a strong desire for a month-long festival.
The Repair Festival 2026 runs from Saturday, September 5 to Sunday, September 27 (the first Saturday to the last Sunday of the month), as we host continuous repair activities and events all across the motu. We invite everyone to join the Repair Movement: communities, businesses, schools, universities and libraries, advocacy groups, and government.
Watch this space!
More events are on their way, they will be uploaded as they reach us!"

#Indigenous Leadership for Transformative #ClimateAction
By Kaniela Ing & #NDNCollective
Excerpt: "Restoring Regeneration
"Climate justice will require a significant structural shift from a #ProfitBased global #extractive economy to #NeedsBased, #localized, #RegenerativeEconomies. Anthropologists believe that, for centuries, people in many Indigenous societies worked roughly 15 hours a week to provide for their personal and communal needs. Our ancestors mastered advanced ecological management practices—like #regenerativeAgriculture , #aquaculture, #ControlledBurning, and #CoralReef replenishment — that Western empiricism is finally catching up to after decades of colonial governments banning such practices. These highly efficient Indigenous systems afforded our ancestors ample time to engage in fellowship with friends, practice arts and #crafts, learn new skills, or just relax and enjoy their lives.
"Today, we produce enough goods and services to exceed the needs of all among us, but poverty and income equality remain stark. Extractive systems endlessly require another valley, another river, another island, another continent—until there is nowhere left to occupy, conquer, pollute, and destroy. No clearer purveyor of this #ColonialMindset exists than the man who milked the most out of the #ExtractiveEconomy. Jeff Bezos, currently the richest man in the world, recently spent $5.5 billion dollars on a joyride to space using the money he’s hoarded by exploiting and abusing hundreds of thousands of workers selling mostly useless goods—made cheap by the monopoly power of Amazon and Amazon-affiliated companies—to the masses. Like a movie villain, his first comment upon witnessing the majesty of our cosmos was that we should immediately begin polluting it by exporting our trash beyond Earth’s orbit.
"We should take heart in the fact that people built our oppressive institutions, because it means that people can dismantle them and build something new. People hold the knowledge and technologies to transform society. All we need is moral fortitude and revolutionary courage. Today’s extractive systems were created and are upheld by the colonial myths of scarcity, individualism, and the sanctity of free markets. Tomorrow’s regenerative systems must be rooted in the Indigenous realities of #abundance, community codependency, and deep #reciprocal relationships between the planet and its people."

#SesameStreet - #ExtremeWeather Resources
Supporting children, families, and communities when weather crises hit.
Children born in 2020 will experience up to 7 times more #ExtremeWeatherEvents than children born in 1960.
"Today, more families than ever before are facing extreme weather events, which can be especially challenging for young children.
Sesame is here to provide support — helping families prepare for, respond to, and recover from floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, and more.
Extreme weather can displace communities, disrupt routines, and jeopardize emotional well-being — so Sesame offers comfort, playful learning, and ways to build resilience and re-establish daily routines.
Whether preparing for the unexpected or recovering from it, children, families, and communities can get through the toughest times, and stay safe, together.
In times of crisis, our resources can help every family find their inner Sesame Street: a comforting smile, a resourceful neighbor, and a reminder that you’re not alone.
Interactive family guides offer simple tips and activities to comfort and support children and keep the whole family safe."

Not just 'Grandma Hobbies' - #DIY and #woodworking ( #GrandpaHobbies ?) are making a comeback as well!
The Comforting Resurgence of ‘ #GrandmaHobbies ’
In search of calm and community, new generations are learning centuries-old skills.
By Kate Brennan, July 18, 2026
Excerpt: " 'Younger generations’ appetite for hands-on activities — what the internet has dubbed 'grandma hobbies' — has reached far beyond Michigan. In North Carolina, John C. Campbell Folk School, the oldest folk school in the country, has a long waiting list for its teen program; just a few years ago, it was struggling to fill all the spots. Ely Folk School in Minnesota has also reported a post-pandemic influx of younger volunteers.
" 'Grandma hobbies reconnect us to ourselves,' said Cal Newport, a professor of computer science at Georgetown University who writes about technology, focus and productivity. 'These activities are hard, in that they require time and concentration to master. But they also offer clear and fulfilling rewards.'
"Mari Sanborn, the communications coordinator for the Folk School Alliance, a nonprofit that supports #FolkEducation across the United States and Canada, said learning #handicrafts offers a way to reclaim a sense of community as well as #TraditionalSkills.
" 'It’s a way of holding onto things that might one day be lost,' she said."

#LeedsUK - The city closing down streets so children can play
Kate McGough, 8/4/2026
"The idea of regularly closing down residential streets for children to play was started in 2009 by a group of parents in Bristol, who wanted to show that 'playing out near home should be normal, it doesn't have to be a special event'. "

Nutritious Foods #Uganda
"Nutritious Foods Uganda is dedicated to empowering urban youth through the power of sustainable agriculture. By turning limited city spaces into productive, life-giving gardens, we teach the next generation how to grow their own fresh, nutrient-dense crops. We are tackling malnutrition head-on, fostering food security, and cultivating young leaders driven to build a healthier, greener future right where they live.
"Proudly continuing a legacy of nourishment and community strength, Nutritious Foods Uganda is redefining farming for the modern world. We are passionate about empowering city youth through urban agriculture—proving that you don't need acres of land to make a difference.
"Through practical training in sustainable vertical gardening, container planting, and space-efficient farming, we teach the next generation how to grow their own healthy food. Together, we are fighting malnutrition, creating green spaces, and building a resilient, well-nourished future for our communities.
What is your dream for the future of your farm and/or location in general?
To teach the youth how to grow crops in a small piece of land."

Empower #Ugandan Families with #GreenYouthMovement
"Imagine a family that struggles to afford enough nutritious food for their children. Through the Green Youth Movement, they gain access to practical training, seedlings, and a local demonstration farm that teaches them how to grow diverse, healthy food on their own land. What begins as a garden leads to better nutrition, lower food costs, new income opportunities, and a healthier future for their children.
Green Youth Movement exists to help families move from food insecurity to self-sufficiency by empowering local youth to restore the land, grow food, and share knowledge throughout their communities.
A $16,000 investment will secure three acres of land in Uganda that will become a demonstration farm, food forest nursery, and community education center. Rather than funding a one-time project, donors will help create a replicable model that trains local volunteers, improves food security, restores soil health, and lays the foundation for long-term community-led growth."
