In Sundsvall, they are testing solutions and learning from others to move forward in the transition.
Sundsvall has taken it upon itself to test new ways of working and solutions, to learn from other members and to work towards the mission: to create a city that works well for the people who live in it, that is good for the economy of citizens, businesses and society - and - that is good for the climate.
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 an effort to manage 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, in which all parties undertake to make a concrete contribution to accelerating the climate transition. The letter of intent is a preparation for signing the contract next year.
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.
Sundsvall is testing solutions and learning from others to move forward in the transition. Sundsvall is one of 48 Swedish municipalities joining forces to tackle the climate crisis and join forces in the next phase for climate-neutral and sustainable cities....
