About SL2 Impact

SL2 Impact Ltd (SL2) - https://sl2impact.org/, works directly with communities who are experiencing social, economic or environmental sustainability challenges. We spend time understanding the context behind local challenges and work with relevant public, private and people sector stakeholders to find the appropriate leverage points to effect systems change.

Overview

Repair Kopitiam (https://repairkopitiam.sg/) started as an initiative of Sustainable Living Lab in 2014 with the intention of tackling the buy-and-throw-away culture in Singapore. Through Repair Kopitiam, we share our repair skills with the public so that they can give their items a second lease of life. Over the years, the program has transformed into a platform to tackle electronic waste (e-waste) as well as to engage with seniors, with a strong focus on active ageing. With the introduction of the Resource Sustainability Act in 2019 and the Singapore Green Plan in 2021, the issue of e-waste has grown in importance. As such, we are embarking on an expansion of our programs to more communities around Singapore and would like to have you onboard with us on this journey.
