Farah Sanwari

To Farah, everyone has gifts and her life mission is to draw people together to help each other realise these gifts. She runs Sustainable Living Lab, a social innovation lab that invites people to think and act towards a sustainable future. A key programme she leads is Repair Kopitiam, a movement to combat a buy-and-throw away culture through repair. It delights Farah that Repair Kopitiam brings people together to share repair skills and work towards a sustainable future. What is broken is not all lost. If you love your barang* (or people for that matter), you should fix it!
