Helsingborg hooks arms with Höganäs.
Past experience and studies show that it is not technical solutions that are missing for climate change, but transformative ability and capacity for new systemic solutions.
The initiative is therefore based on what kind of movement we believe must take place, what working methods we believe will be required, what competencies and structures this requires, and how these should be anchored in the city's organization. Through an iterative process that moves between knowledge acquisition, synthesis and testing, the project will increase the understanding and capacity for how to proactively drive a transition of a complex and advanced society, while increasing employment, strengthening high-tech development and ensuring relevant interaction with citizens. More concretely, the project will work on developing a climate transition function, a citizen lab and a knowledge support dialog.
In the city's latest update, they talk about the work, the transition arena, the project portfolio and much more.

The city is currently working on collecting good examples of how they mobilize and work for the climate transition. They will be here soon!
Climate City Contract 2030 is a collective effort to achieve the climate transition that we need to implement in a short time to keep global warming below 1.5 degrees. It is an agreement between municipalities, government agencies and Viable Cities where all parties undertake to make a concrete contribution to increasing the pace of climate change.
To achieve deep change, we need to move from fragmented projects to an ecosystem of efforts that all pull in the same direction. Cities are doing this together with Viable Cities, funders government agencies and other partners, in different constellations and with different objectives. It is about moving beyond dealing with symptoms and instead focusing on underlying problems in our social structure. Here you will find the initiatives and studies within the city that have been granted funding under Viable Cities.
