Evidence of success
Some examples of LMM projects and their impacts. NO-FOOD GOODS RECOVERY: the project “Change the final”, promoted by Hera,allows citizens to give a second life to large goods you no longer use (eg. furniture, appliances, etc.). In 2015 we recovered more than 700 tons of bulky goods in 5 provinces of Emilia-Romagna. PHARMACY RECOVERY: thanks to the project “Pharmaceutical friend” we recover still valid pharmaceutics purchased and not used by citizens and allocate them to organisations.
Potential for learning or transfer
The LMM favors the creation of a solidarity network in the territory that makes the relinquished good a relational value as well as socio-assistance. This also strengthens the educational value of this experience, which becomes replicable and imitable for innumerable product types.
