Summary: Earlier this year, we travelled to Turin to take part in Fixfest Italia - the first national community repair gathering in Italy.<br> <br> In the lead-up to Fixfest 2019 in Berlin, as an unusual treat, we are now sharing our first ever Restart Radio episode in Italian! It features interviews recorded in Turin during the event, capturing participants and organisers' excitement, and the energy at the event.<br> <br> Fixfest Italia took place within the Turin Mini Maker Faire, and included sessions on a range of topics, including campaigning for the Right to repair, teaching repair in schools, increasing collaboration in between local initiatives, and sharing best practices on insurance and outreach to potential volunteers. We enjoyed attending the event and meeting Restarters from 9 groups. And at the end of the event, our hosts Restarters Torino, threw a wonderful Restart Party, showcasing their diverse community of repair enthusiasts, local repair professionals and students joyfully repairing together.<br> <br> If you are an Italian speaker, or you'd like to practice your Italian, go ahead and listen to this episode. <br> <br> If you need any help, you can also find the whole audio transcript at: https://therestartproject.org/podcast/fixfest-italia<br> <br> If you don't speak Italian - don't despair, our regular podcast in English will be back later this month!<br> <br> Many thanks to Restarter and audio engineer Stefania Fantini, who interviewed participants and edited the podcast. And thanks to Sergio Almerares from Restarters Milano for the full transcript in Italian.
