The SO.LA.RE. Onlus was set up on February 2016 by a group of people with different work experiences and skills animated by the desire to put themselves at the service of those who have been "less fortunate". The activity of the Association is aimed at supporting the "new poverties": 1. families with lack of income because of the loss of work of one or more of its members; 2. unemployed young people in poor economic conditions, so called "NEET" (Not in education, employment or training). The action of the Association is not limited to mere economic contributions but tends to reactivate conditions, will and energies in order to start a "relaunch" process.

ReMade community lab intends to spread the ecological and digital culture through the experimentation of a micro production laboratory starting from urban plastic waste which, through design, recycling and digital manufacturing processes, aims to start a circular economy model in the city. The goal is to simplify and reduce the environmental impact of urban waste management by concentrating the collection, recycling and production phases in a single organization unit. The products realised by the laboratory are conceived through a creative process that starts from the choice and reworking of signs belonging to the territory.
