Repair & ReuseLeipzigMake and mend at Makerspace GohlisSelbermachen statt neu kaufen The Makerspace in Gohlis is a shared workshop in a former car dealership where Leipzig residents turn ideas into objects: with tools, machines, and neighbours who enjoy teaching. What is on offer - 3D printing, wood and textile work, ceramics, photo lab, welding, and more. - Workshops and courses to learn techniques and meet other makers. - Priority on reused and surplus materials; new purchases only when necessary. Open hours - Tue-Fri 17:00-22:00; Sat 10:00-16:00 - Lindenthaler Str. 61-65, 04157 Leipzig Why it matters When households share heavy tools and skills, fewer rarely used machines are bought and discarded: repair and making stay local and joyful.

CommunityPristinaITP Prizren, innovation park in a former barracksStart-ups, makerspace, and 2,000 students on one campus The Innovation and Training Park (ITP) Prizren redeveloped a former KFOR barracks into Kosovo's leading tech and creative hub. ICT firms, the University for Business and Technology campus (2,000 students), and Makerspace Innovation Center (3,000+ youth trained) share fibre, workshops, and incubation services. What you can do - Founders in Kosovo: apply for ITP tenancy or Makerspace incubation programmes - Western Balkan builders: visit the park to study barracks-to-campus conversion - Employers: hire from UBT Prizren and Makerspace alumni pipelines How it works GIZ supported feasibility and setup until 2024; a Kosovan management team now runs daily operations with continued cooperation on advisory services. Why it matters Peacekeeping sites can become peace-building economies, hardware, code, and classrooms under one roof.
