 Welcome Moises, who will present what is going on in Mexico. Moises is, hello, thank you for showing yourself, you're an environmental engineer by training and interested in how repair functions in the circular economy and how in Mexico repair joints restoration renovation manufacturing and other actions of the circular economy. And Moises will speak to us about an app that he has produced that promotes repair in Mexico City by mapping repair businesses. So, yeah, let's see what you have prepared for us. Welcome. Can I start sharing this? Okay. Yeah, I can see it. And I think everyone else as well. Okay, well, like Catherine says, I'm an environmental engineer, and I'm a student whose object of study is the stock management in Mexico about the circular economy. I have technical support in the management of landfill of some municipalities here in Mexico. Also work as a national web director. The director for promote the recycling of packaging from different brands such as Tetrapac Mexico and Grupo Modelo. Well, I will start with a small introduction about the circular economy. So, we develop under a linear economy, which consists in struck raw materials manufacturing product, using it to sell it to to final disposal. So, we are the forest in forest to produce a sheet of paper and then sending it to the sanitary landfill. We, with this, we almost completely the value the raw material, the raw materials, and if we continue with this level of consumption. We may be reaching the planetary limits of the structure in certain materials. Here in the landfill. You can see sometimes rain, a degradation. Here create the bio gas and the beach, and they contaminate the soil, the atmosphere, the water. And this is very preoccupying situation. I present the butterfly diagram from Ellen MacArthur Foundation, where the vehicle cycles can be absorbed by the green, where the aim is to reintegrate the bio biochemical cycles of the vegetable materials. You can see an aerobic digestion, composting, a restoration, all for the available materials. And in blue, there is this, the technical cycle or the stock management materials. In this we can see that there is a hierarchy of activities. For example, maintenance of objects is preferred that recycling. In some cleaning products can be used, but in recycling they're applied more environmental impacts, derived for the compaction, the storage, fund ring, manufacturing, transport, and the commercialization of the new product. Here we can see many, well, the loops and the hierarchy of the different loops as well. We prefer maintenance or repair over another, another activities. I showed the diagram made by Oroni, who explains the different hierarchies that exist in the stock management of materials in urban mining. And you can find that there is activities are divided according to the phase of the product to which the service is performed. For example, the extension of the useful life of the product. We can refurbish, repurposing or recycling. This diagram is important because we can see the hierarchy of the different activities of the different arts of the of the circular economy. The hierarchy is about the environmental impact that we we make, or the activity do where you apply it. Well about the arts of the circular economy worldwide there is a talk about the three hours to reduce our environmental impact today with advances in research. We have established teen hours that participate in the circular economy, however, there are more that 38 are 38 are words that help avoid the environmental impact in which we will focus on what then refers to repair but we know that there are more than there are more ways to reduce our environmental impact in the stock management in other countries. In international level there are different ways in which the stock management of materials is approached such as repair cafes where a repair expert teach others to repair their objects, or flip source where you can buy all fashion things. But in Mexico, it hasn't developed that way in Mexico repair is. Well, repair cafes for Mexicans is a strange thing. They don't know about the reverse cafes we don't have reverse cafes, well we have some events that about repair, and they are like repair cafes but a Mexico in Mexico we don't have we don't have it. We have repairs of almost any object but distributed throughout throughout the country. And also we don't have a we have tripsters but we prefer another kind of places like the cangis. Here the cangis or the pacas. The pacas is only for clothes, but the cangis is for every second hand object. The cangis are itinerant markets where the products are also are sold and services are offered mainly second hand products are offered. There you can buy them repair and me, any consumer, consumer product. You can find any consumer product like beds chairs desk doors windows, you can buy anything we we will we have a second hand market, very huge and some repairman in Mexico could be the shoe repairman who like the most repairs arise from the need to prolong the life of use of the object to the lack of the lack of money to buy a new object. They learned the business alone through the experience. Here, for example, you can see some belts, some backs, and they will the people have the need to to prolong the lack of the use the people have the need to have shoes who have belts have backs, and they ask it for them to repair it. And that's the reason that they develop the repair of the different objects like the belts, the backs, the shoes and the other things of letter. We also have nice sharpeners, a pot repair, whose repairs are prolonged the life of the objects, but in Mexico, they have been disappearing. Today is difficult to find people dedicated to this. It may be because the product that they repair are cheaper now. People can buy a knife, a pot, very cheaper now or online and they deliver for their homes. And that's the reason that we thought this repairman now are disappearing because this is very cheap to buy it. And we have a washing machine repairman who can repair at at home or assist with the ban to your home, take the washing machine and take into the workshop. Just on this example, we have many specialized specialized repair shops for different objects in most of the city in the country like a washing machine we have a lot of kind of repairman. In Mexico, the separation of the waste is manual by people dedicated to this call scavengers, speakers in Mexico call pepenadores, pepenadores is an Aztec work, an Aguat work. This refers that people to separate things and when they separate finding a good quality objects that sometimes they sell or give away to repairman to repair it or to obtain parts in the objects to repair another object. Here we can see that the pickers work with the repairman and also the repairman work with second hand salesperson and there is like a change of the circular economy that rescue the materials that is considered garbage, materials from the garbage to have objects that have a radius that have an object that you can sell by second hand. This is important because many enterprises that make this that manufacture these products doesn't know about this change doesn't know about that the the pickers the repairman and the salesperson of second hand have worked together. Well, once the situation in Mexico was known, it was decided to make in an app to be able to unite all those who seeks to prolong the life of use of the objects and start organizing them to to promote repair. And also, well, a recall app is the is the app that we made. And with the pioneer app in Mexico to seek to make be to make visible and promote repair business and extension of the level of the use of the product in general. At international level, there is a the monitor activities to participate in the circular economy is recognized because circular economy is a new term, and there is the concern to know the current situation in this in in objects whose life of use is provoked. Like I said, we don't know the the rate of security of some objects, but we know that they are some chains about circular economy there are some, there are a lot of repairman Mexico, but we don't know a the the security great of the of the objects, because we we don't have a lot of research about it. We want to make research about about the risk rate of in Mexico for the different for the different objects. This app is part of the so called industry for point zero for top zero, which throw the internet aims to generate information and may activities easier with the app it takes to generate information to improve the work of the repairman. In Mexico, there are some projects dedicated to handling of materials such as a colana recolab recycle alone, which seek to promote a recyclability of the objects. This project and they have a platforms in on internet that have a repair a recycling points, or some some business that you can go with your recyclable materials to sell the need for the people and the people can, the people of the city can buy your your recyclable materials. Some states in Mexico have their own platforms where indicate where to dispose materials in case of the Leon of learn one of what it established the collection routes and it's of its ways. You can consult. You can search a where is the garbage through and in one hour in the at the hour that the garbage through go in the in the route. In Guadalajara, there is an app that you can report it recycling points are this repair. Also, well, well, I had eyes in one of the states that have a reset recycling points. And you can report if it's disagree. Well, a eco maps, we call it we call this a eco maps, a comapas maps about ecology or something like that. And we have a eco maps at international level. Like, there's a large number of repair sites and in the identification of the projects that take part of the security economy. We know about the restart. We, we love it. We know about the security economy on the map and there is a project that they locate, locate projects about security economy, and also the reparation guide of Argentina. That also have a list of repairments in Argentina with the information generated by the application, different analysis can be carried out the app like any other request for personal information such as gender, age and location. And this can guide us in the profiles users, but who the part who repairs the most, as well as the correlation of what is the most repaired and with geographical characteristics in the suns through the geographic information systems. And this analysis can be promote and develop the repair of objects. Here for example, we can note by the app. The profile of users, like who repairs the most millennial centenials, a woman, women, men, women. For example, we can make analysis like heat maps. For example, imagine that here are millennials. That's repairs a lot. And also you can have you have you have a river. You can have cell phones, this compose by the wet. Yes, this compose by the wet or, or they get broke. And the reason is the river know, and you can make this analysis and if there is a river here to the here near to location. You can develop the repair, you can develop repairments like in this place, you can see some patterns in some places, and you can reply in other places that have the same conditions. In this with geography, geographic information systems. You have a, for example, the river that are layers in the locations, another type of information, and you can make this analysis. The application are the following. There is a national database, like that have like a half of million a business of repair. But we only work in Mexico City. There are more than a 28,000 records of repair maintenance business, and then is 26 types of different business. There are the following section of the app in the middle image, the map which has a serial filters locate business first location can be filtered. And then the product which the service can be given. And finally, the service that is there to perform the product. Some examples of risk of of searchers are showing on the left about the furniture upholstery upholstery repair and the right car repair in two different locations. If you click on a business and information sheets appears, which has the name of the business, its location, its email, its telephone number, and its location in Google Maps. If you click on it, it sends to you to Google Maps, and you can see more information about the business and the information that Google Maps have. Our projection for the future are to create a forum of repair of users where photos of the objects can be shared to develop the repair specifically of novel objects that are not repaired today, like air frayers, popcorn makers, anti mosquito rockets and all of the novel things with this because there are a lot of novel products that in Mexico doesn't have this chain of security or security. We don't have the develop their repair. And you can find our app and more information in the QR code, you can also find us in Google Play and the moment currently be downloaded in Android, we are working for for Apple, but only so is only for for Android. And that was all for my part. Thank you very much. I'm happy for any comment in the chat. Also, I share my WhatsApp number my email for any type of contact. Great. Yes, thank you Moses. Thank you very much. We already we had some some interesting conversation already in the chat with regards to where knife sharpness and scavengers can still be seen and where we can find them. Yeah, also that these repair maps are a repair map in general is a great idea and with a wish to have one is very. Yeah, it's something or yeah, would very much like to see. Of course funding as always a difficult thing but as Janet already pointed out, there are opportunities and it is possible to get funding for developing such an app. Yeah, do we have questions. Yeah Janet, how is this app development funded. Can you tell us about that Moses. Well, I am a master's student and I develop in the master's degree. I have some. Well, I have some students for from the career, and they work for develop the, the app. And I don't have like another foundation on the, the mother, the only the students that work with me and I think that that was that. Yes, you have something to add. I don't know Moses if whether you speak or understand French, or otherwise we'd need an interpreter or a yes, could you state your question in English. Or do we have someone who could would be willing to write in English or with my email later. Second. Yes. Yes, thank you, thank you very much. I have received your presentation. I, the idea of a cat also for the repairman and others, but it has come and I have been confronted with a difficulty. In our country, in any case, the repairman earns money by doing the work. But when I talk about a catography of these people, there are many, many reserves. They have thought for a while that if we do the four, it may be that the fiscal, the agents of the impoverished, the localised and the given, the demand for remittances. But no, I would like to know what strategies you have used, what is the therapist's approach to localising the cat. What language do you have, what strategies you have used. Thank you. Okay. I understand that a what strategy that I used for a well, well, a lot of these repair workshops of repairments. There, there, there are from the forum sense for a sense or of Mexico government. Mexico government government do a sense every five years about the business that are in Mexico. And this is a like free information, free government information and you can consult in their web page of the government, but I put in an app for be able for any for anyone. And the information is, is free on, on, on internet. Thank you, Panda also for translating. Do we have any other comments or questions. Mata also has another question. Do those maps include OEMs for those products that still have warranty. Excuse me, what is OEM? Okay. No, the, well, the department work alone, they don't work with the, well, they have their own guarantee, but they don't work with the guarantee of the product of the manufacturer thing. They only work with, with repair the things by themselves. There is very, I don't know, very apart. They work by themselves. And another question. Has the app helped increasing the number of repairs or is it more a way of getting the overview of repairs online instead of a phone book. The app helped to increase the number of repairs. Also, we want to develop the repair of the novel objects. And just the, we are developed the forum where the repairs can be online and you can share your telephone number in online with the, with the repairman. And you can, you can talk with them to repair other things. Okay, great. Thank you, Moses and yes, in case you haven't seen we are not now not taking a break.
