Winter Activities – When There Is Snow and Ice Winter is the coldest season of the year in Sweden as well as in the Northern hemisphere. At the winter solstice, the days are shortest and the nights are longest, with days lengthening as the season progresses after the solstice. Winter in Sweden is defined by meteorologists to be when the average temperature per day is constantly below 0°C. This usually corresponds to the months of December, January and February. An extremely cold winter is called vargavinter (wolfs’ winter). The last vargavinter in Sweden was the winter of 2009/2010. Many animals go into hibernation or lie dormant during the winter e.g. bears and hedgehogs. Migratory birds have flown to the tropical regions. Annual plants survive the winter as seeds. Winter activities – when there is snow and ice Popular winter activities in Sweden are ice hockey, bandy, skiing, skating and go sledding (se picture). You can go sledding in Slottsskogen and at Delsjön in Gothenburg. We have listed information about some winter activities below. Unfortunately most of the links are only in Swedish. (try google translate to get the information in your language) Snowball-fighting, jigging and ice swimming Popular activities during winter are snowball-fighting, jigging (drill a hole through a frozen lake to catch fish) and ice swimming followed by a sauna. You can try this in Gothenburg, see www.askimsbastu.se Skating Public ice-skating on Heden in the city centre of Gothenburg. Fee: SEK 30. If you wish to borrow skates, it costs SEK 30. More information in Swedish e.g. opening hours at www.ispaheden.se Long distance skating In the Gothenburg surroundings, there are excellent opportunities to go long distance skating on natural ice. From December to March you can usually find great ice. Skating clubs provide information about which ice is best at the moment. (Membership is required, ~ 150 sek) The weather variations in western Sweden make it almost always possible to find good skating ice, even though it has snowed or been warm weather for a long time. Some of Gothenburg's skating clubs: GLSK, Göteborgs Långfärdsskridskoklubb, www.glsk.se Interested in cross-country skiing? There are skiing tracks in Skatås and Delsjön in Gothenburg. More information about the tracks and how to get there at Skatås utomhusaktiviteter - Skatås gym & motionscentrum - Göteborgs Stad You have to bring your own skies. You can also rent skies at some shops, www.akessportservice.se or www.udenssport.se/sv More information about the tracks and how to get there at the Swedish website www.skidspar.se and at www.youtube.com/skidspar Downhill skiing A skiing resort fairly close to Gothenburg is Isaberg. (100 km east of Gothenburg) There are 10 slopes and 8 lifts and a shop where you can hire skies and boots etc. More information at www.isaberg.com (information also in English) Bandy Bandy is a team winter sport played on ice, in which skaters use sticks to direct a ball into the opposing team's goal. If you want to see bandy live in top division, you can go to Heden in the centre of Gothenburg and see one of the matches.

And most importantly – you need to balance ambition with realism. We planned realistically for a three-step strategy to raise Critical Heritage Studies at GU to an internationally leading level over a minimum period of 9-10 years. Parallel with this we anchored it internally within the four faculties of humanities, social sciences, natural sciences and art. For the "rst two phases each step in the process marked a real progression, and for the planned third we continue this line to reach our primary goal. 2010-2012: Formation phase. Collaboration of four faculties; recruitment of 5 international post-docs to support research environment; reaching out and connecting internally and internationally; organized "rst international conference on Critical Heritage Studies with 500 participants; formation of Association of Critical Heritage Studies based at GU.

  • Pågående Och Planerad Stadsutveckling I Göteborg City
    Pågående och planerad stadsutveckling i Göteborg city 1 Göteborgs Citysamverkan 2021-01-12 www.goteborg.se/citysamverkan Inledning - En ny stadskärna växer fram Trots Coronakris fortsätter och planeras en mängd betydande utvecklingsprojekt i och omkring stadskärnan för att bibehålla och stärka Göteborgs och Västsveriges attraktionskraft. Sammanställningen av pågående och planerad stadsutveckling syftar till att ge en samlad bild över utvecklingen för att bland annat: • Visa hur planer och projekt utvecklar och påverkar stadskärnans attraktivitet och att stadens olika aktörer tillsammans varje dag arbetar med utvecklingen av stadskärnan. • Utgöra underlag för prioriteringar och utvecklingsinriktningar hos stadens aktörer, bland annat behov av upprustning av befintliga platser och stråk för att ytterligare binda samman stadskärnans nya och gamla platser och stråk. • Utgöra samlat informationsunderlag för investerings och/eller etableringsbeslut för större och mindre företag inom bland annat fastighetsbranschen, besöksnäringen och handeln. • Berätta för stadens användare om alla delar som tillsammans stärker Citys regionala, nationella och internationella attraktions- och konkurrenskraft. • Illustrera hur alla byggnationer runt om i staden kommer att skapa ett nytt Göteborg. Många projekt är beslutade, pågår och ska färdigställas. Flera planer och projekt kan dock förändras från idéstadie till byggstart eller kanske rentav inte förverkligas överhuvudtaget. Det är dock viktigt att redan i tidiga skeden lyfta fram tankegångar, planer och beslutade

  • Tio År Med GR
    Tio år med GR Göteborgsregionens kommunalförbund 1995–2005 © GR Första upplagan juni 2005 Produktion: Infogruppen GR Tryckeri: PR-Offset Foto: GR, då inget annat anges Tio år med GR Göteborgsregionens kommunalförbund 1995–2005 En starkare region! EXEMPEL PÅ VAD det regionala samarbetet har uträttat är lätt att räkna upp. Se på utbildningsområdet där vi är unika i landet med gemensam intagning till en gränslös gymnasieskola. En internationell skola, ISGR, som stärker regionens internationella utbyte och samverkan med näringslivet. Kontakterna mellan kommunerna och högskolorna har utvecklats och för att öka intresset hos ungdomar för teknik och natur- vetenskap var GR en av initiativtagarna till Universeum. Forskare och praktiker inom det sociala området fick en mötesplats då FoU i Väst startade 1999. FoU i Väst var en stor tillgång i läkningsprocessen efter den fruktansvärda diskotekbranden. FoU har också en viktig roll när vi idag diskuterar åtgärder för att minska rekryteringen till kriminella gäng. En stor del av verksamheten på GR består av kompetens- utveckling för kommunernas anställda och förtroendevalda. Omvärlds- bevakning och att tidigt kunna se förändringar är viktigt. Tillsammans kan vi engagera de bästa och mest aktuella föreläsarna. Det största och mest synliga regionala samarbetsprojektet den gångna tioårsperioden är kanske ändå Göteborgsöverenskommelsen med miljardsatsningar på trafik och miljön. Ett bra exempel också på hur GR-samarbetet utgör en stark plattform i dialogen med statliga verk och myndigheter. Listan på bra samarbetsprojekt kan göras hur lång som helst! Det är bara att läsa den här skriften för att inse nyttan av vårt regionala sam- arbete. Att GR-samarbetet utvecklats under perioden kan även beskrivas i siffror, från 1995 till 2005 har omsättningen stigit från 73 till 170 miljoner kronor.
