A smaller part of the support could be awarded to planning projects, such as feasibility studies, programme descriptions and cross-sector planning and information initiatives. In 2011 and 2012, the Delegation can decide on financial support totalling about SEK 19 million per year. Support can only be allocated to planning projects during this period. Up to 30 percent of the costs in a project can be given support. For further information on the financial support, please visit www.hallbarastader.gov.se. The Delegation has distributed support to nine investment projects and 55 planning projects.

Stimulating new demonstration models reinforces this position, while shedding light on several sustainability aspects. One such example is collaboration in both the planning and the implementation process with the actors involved – municipality, business sector, residents - enhancing the quality of the projects. The projects also demonstrate how the technical systems are linked together. Major synergies can be achieved by taking a coordinated approach to energy, waste, and wastewater management.

  • Meeting a Growing Homelessness: How Could Three Swedish Affordable Housing Initiatives Be Analysed from Perspectives of Social and Economic Sustainability?
    Nordic Journal of Surveying and Real Estate Research Volume 15, Number 1, 2020 Nordic Journal of Surveying and Real Estate Research 15:1 (2020) 7–37 submitted on 11 January 2020 revised on 31 March 2020 revised on 2 June 2020 accepted 2 July 2020 Meeting a Growing Homelessness: How Could Three Swedish Affordable Housing Initiatives Be Analysed from Perspectives of Social and Economic Sustainability? Anna Granath Hansson Department of Real Estate and Construction Management, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden Contact: [email protected] Abstract. Homelessness has increased substantially in Sweden in the last decade with an emphasis on structural homelessness. Further, municipalities have the responsibility to house a certain number of newly arrived immigrants under the Settlement Act. Many municipalities have had difficulties in meeting the acute housing need, as well as its costs, and have started to look at new types of housing solutions. Initiatives of the civil society and private developers have been encouraged. This paper investigates three civil society and private housing developments and how they might contribute to socially and economically sustainable housing solutions for households in or on the verge to homelessness. In order to operationalize social and economic sustainability in relation to these local projects, a definition and an analytical set of questions have been developed based on the literature and project data. It is concluded that all three projects are socially and economically sustainable at the outset, but that certain traits of the project set-ups make them more uncertain in the longer run. The concept of sustainability proved fruitful in analysing the projects, but in many cases, non-physical factors will be person dependent and therefore difficult to generalise.

The regional Structural Funds programme covers Stockholm County, which coincides with the geographical area of Stockholm in the European Union’s NUTS2 classification. Today, in 2013, the region has a population of just over 2.1 million, divided between 26 municipalities. The largest municipality, Stockholm City, in addition to being the national capital, is the largest municipality in the region (and in Sweden), with nearly 900 000 inhabitants. The smallest municipalities in the county, by comparison, have a population of around 10 000. The annual increase in population during the programming period 2007-2013 was just over 35 000.

We are differently organized, we have varying legislation and our coastlines differ as well as our response capacities. Only one thing is common for all – no country alone is capable of protecting all their valuable coastlines in case of a major oil spill. There is a well-established international cooperation both within HELCOM and the Copenhagen Agreement regarding offshore oil spill response. However, when it comes to shoreline oil spill response the Baltic Sea countries are lacking a platform for exchanging experiences and knowledge. This is the background for the EnSaCo project and the BOILEX exercise. The number of stakeholders involved in a shoreline oil spill response is far larger than the ones operating at sea which leads to a more complicated operation. This complexity is present also in shoreline exercises. BOILEX was no exception; we combined a theoretical table top with practical field exercises both on-shore and offshore. The exercise included 81 different organizations from 8 countries. HELCOM will include shoreline oil spills and oiled wildlife response in their overall response in the near future.

It is a great treasure at the disposal of those who live in or visit the capital region, with many different types of natural setting – everything from the rugged island of Bullerö in the outer archipelago that stretches eastward into the Baltic Sea, to sun-dappled broad-leaved woods along the shores of Lake Mälaren to the west. Consider the agricultural landscape at Angarn in Vallentuna which has been farmed for a thousand years, and the broad expanse of virgin forest at Tyresta in the Södertörn area – a wilderness area just twenty kilo- metres from the centre of Stockholm city.

  • National Strategy for Climate Change Adaptation
    Description of the Government Bill 2017/18:163 National Strategy for Climate Change Adaptation The main content of the bill The bill proposes two changes to the Planning and Building Act (2010:900) with the aim of improving municipalities’ preparedness for climate change. One of these changes involves a requirement for municipalities to provide their views in their structure plans on the risk of damage to the built environment as a result of climate-related flooding, landslides and erosion, and on how such risks can be reduced or eliminated. The other change involves the municipality being able to decide in a detailed development plan that a site improvement permit is required for ground measures that may reduce the ground’s permeability and that are not being taken to build a street, road or railway that is compatible with the detailed development plan. The Government also reports on a National Strategy for Climate Change Adaptation in order to strengthen climate change adaptation work and the national coordination of this work in the long term. The strategy was announced in the Government’s written communication ‘Kontrollstation för de klimat- och energipolitiska målen till 2020 samt klimatanpassning’ (‘Control station for the 2020 climate and energy policy objectives and climate change adaptation’, Riksdag Communication 2015/16:87). Through the strategy, the Government also meets its obligations in accordance with the Paris Agreement and the EU Strategy on Adaptation to Climate Change, in which a national climate change adaptation strategy is highlighted as a central analytical instrument that is intended to explain and prioritise actions and investments.
