The aim of Sustainable City – a Swedish partnership initiative” is to offer a holistic concept for sustainable urban development. Main parties from Sweden are the Swedish Government through the Ministry for Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of the Environment and the Swedish environmental technology industry through the Swedish Trade Council.

The ambition of the project “The Sustainable City” is to gather and communicate compre-hensive knowledge on the most innovative and inspiring sustainable urban solutions.

It is our hope that the project will stimulate representatives from national and local governments, industry, NGO’s, the academic world, media, financial institutions, international organizations etc. to further discuss and share knowledge and experiences in the field of applied environmental technology and management.

The Swedish industry is now organized in several networks to enable the shortest, possible way from vision to implementation.
