Roma: DRI, Fondazione Enotaria ONLUS. This article describes new approaches to set about boundary-spanning challenges for regional sustainable development and uses as a starting point experiences from the sector of cultural heritage. In the Baltic Sea re- gion a number of regeneration schemes have been carried out 1993-2004 which was based on the experiences from the Swedish region Halland. In the Baltic Sea region new cross-sectoral and multi-disciplinary networks was introduced which will be described and discussed with a “multi-prob- lem-oriented” approach. wThe objective with this article is to describe and discuss the creation of such, specifically tailored networks that have been working “pro-actively” with cultural heritage and sustainable develop- ment. New tool-kits have been developed for the protection, maintenance and conservation of the built cultural heritage. Instead of only safeguard- ing the historic buildings from demolition or unnecessary alteration the approach has been to take the role and the initiative in designing projects in which the cultural heritage sector had the central role on a regional level. To achieve this goal the new networks have been established which 183 the halland model have been working cross-sectorally and multi-disciplinarily. The benefit of this collaboration was that the cultural heritage sector was able to act as a driving force in achieving the objectives agreed upon. In such networks the public sector is anticipated to co-operate with SME’s, NGO’s as well as with research teams, where the cultural heritage is anticipated to have a pro-active role, and to co-operate actively in an ambience of Regional Development programmes etc. The impact of the regeneration schemes on a regional level are as follows: • Regional development • Strengthening of democracy • Cultural identity. Keywords: Built cultural heritage, sustainable development, cross-secto- ral networks, multi-disciplinarily approach, regional development. 184 chapter 5 – papers Return on Heritage Investments Some Measurable Results of the Conser- vation of Harplinge Windmill and Rydö- bruk Industrial Site Christer Gustafsson1 and Thomas Polesie In the province of Halland in Sweden construction workers have been trained in traditional building techniques by practising these skills on historic buildings at risk.2 The motto for the cross-sectoral network the Halland Model has been to: • save the jobs; • save the craftsmanship; and • save the buildings. After a while a fourth motto was added: • to find an activity or business, which could contribute to regional sustainable development, for the improved premises. Today, almost ninety historic buildings have been saved and conserved in the Halland Model.3 Almost one-third, 1,100 of the region’s 3,700 con- struction workers, have been employed in these conservation schemes and thereby trained in traditional building techniques. Some 235 new jobs 1 The author is one of the founders of the Halland Model and a member of its steering committee. 2 Gustafsson 1992; 1996; 2000; 2003; Gustafsson and Rosvall 2007; Gustafsson and Polesie 2007. 3 The concept conservation in this article is used in a broad sense (including restoration and preservation) according to Muñoz Viñas’ definition, see Muñoz Viñas 2005, pp.16 ff. 185 the halland model have been created in the improved premises.4 Aims and objectives Preservation cannot be seen as a museum process where a historic object has been taken out from economic circulation.5 The decision to preserve or conserve a historic building is a complex process based on cultural, historical and political aspects. It might therefore be described as a suc- cessfully concluded articulation of meanings and values. The aim with this paper is to investigate the return of investment in two different con- servation projects, the Harplinge windmill and the Rydöbruk industrial site. These two cases have been chosen since they distinctly demonstrate their impacts in two ways: in improved craftsmanship and job creation in the conserved buildings’ new functions. This paper will investigate the complex of problems, the discussions among the decision-makers involved in the conservation team, the priorities of how the problems were solved and what determined the quality. The focus of the analysis is the discussion of preserving a building with its given qualities and its new function, and the gap between these two poles. This difference between existing resources before conservation and after with the building’s new function can be described as the return of investments in building conservation projects. The resources invested con- stitute: the buildings, the financial means, and the participants, including their knowledge and strategies, as well as their organisations. The results could therefore be seen in the increased value of the existing buildings and the new knowledge established among the participants. Further, it is of vital importance to study the adjustments between the interests of various groups and to describe the decisive choices and factors that made conservation possible to accomplish. Both the Harplinge wind- mill and the Rydöbruk industrial site were found in given locations and in their then present conditions. Conservation officers compiled preliminary conservation studies which were presented to the cooperating partners representing other interests. This paper will investigate and discuss how 4 Gustafsson 2003. 5 See e.g. Sörlin 2001; Muñoz Viñas 2005; Gustafsson and Polesie 2007. 186 chapter 5 – papers the aim of conservation was developed together with the other interests during the procedure of the feasibility study. Of certain interest for this article is craftsmanship, especially job creation in the buildings’ new func- tions. All partners in the Halland Model agreed that it was of crucial impor- tance that the historic buildings post conservation completion became accessible to the public. The ambition was to find an activity, or business, which was also important for regional growth and sustainable develop- ment. These new functions could be in the arts and culture sectors, tour- ism, nature conservation, environment protection, as well as more down- right commercial businesses. The common idea among the partners in the Halland Model was that if the public sector invested so much public funding based on tax revenue into one conservation project, the commu- nity as a whole should have as much in return. Delimitation The article will not deal with the overall community impact on the Hal- land Model. It will focus on only two of its conservation projects and their impact on craftsmanship and job creation in new functions which will be further discussed.6 Even if the concept value is centrally used in this paper, the article has no pretensions to find an all-embracing interpretation. Instead, the focus will be on identifying the value of cultural heritage, place and function for the return on investments in conservation. Problem formulation The overall question in every conservation project is whether to do any- thing at all or just to leave the object as it is.7 Before making an invest- ment in conservation of a historic building one has first to deal with the question as to whether to demolish it, and erect something with a greater 6 For a description of the Halland Model’s impact on saving buildings and regional cohesion, see Gustafsson and Polesie 2007; for its impact on sustainable development see Gustaf- sson and Rosvall 2007; and for its impact on collaborating management research see Gustafsson, Adler and Stymne 2007. 7 See for example Muñoz Viñas 2005 187 the halland model benefit to society, or conserve the existing building. One has to ask one- self, can it be justifiable to invest that great amount of public funding for the conservation of an old windmill or a closed-down industrial site? The benefit to society can be expressed as values elucidated in a calculation. This article will discuss and present the values from conservation projects in such calculations. In such comprehensive cooperation as the Halland Model, several per- formers have various agendas, objectives and missions. The cultural herit- age and the labour market sectors represent separate political priorities as well as traditions and cultures. They practically speak different languages. The divergence between the two public sectors became obvious when speaking about their completely different resources with allocated budg- ets. This paper will elucidate the various performers’ and participants’ dif- ferent roles in the Halland Model and what their resources were composed of, which risks they took and what was the return on their investments. All members of the steering committee agreed that if public society finan- cially contributed to the Halland Model conservation projects with such resources, the return to the public should be an equivalent.8 This paper will describe the translation from principles to practice as well as the dis- cussions and negotiations in the trade between various interests. To be able to achieve the targets set, a common language had to be developed.

    Master`s Programme in International Marketing, 60 credits MASTER Branding in social media THESIS A qualitative study of three Swedish municipalities Hiba Charkas, Anne Beth Eltun International Marketing & Strategic Management and Leadership, 15 credits Halmstad 2014-06-04 Acknowledgement We would like to thank everyone who has contributed to this thesis with information, help, advice and critics. Especially we would like to thank the interviewees from each municipality; Anna-Charlotta Pettersson (Halmstad), Mattias Skoog (Falkenberg), Jessica Krantz (Ängelholm) and Daniel Franzén (Ängelholm), our fellow students and opposition groups and our supervisor Navid Ghannad. Finally we would also like to thank our families for their support in the course of writing the thesis. Halmstad, June 4th 2014 Hiba Charkas Anne Beth Eltun i Abstract Research show that social media are effective channels to use in branding, at the same time Swedish municipalities are increasingly starting to see the importance of branding and reports show that they are using social media channels for branding purposes. Even though reports show that the municipalities are using social media channels in branding there is a lack of studies done on how they are using social media in branding. To examine this two research questions is developed; (1) What is branding for a municipality and (2) How are municipalities using social media in branding. To examine the research questions different theories are applied and a conceptual framework is developed based on theories from branding, social media and branding in social media. To collect data for the research a qualitative study with three case studies (three Swedish municipalities) is conducted.

  • 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.

    . . SAMMANFATTNING Arbetets art: Kandidatuppsats 15 hp, Socialt arbete 61-90. Sidantal: 42 sidor, exklusive försättsblad, innehållsförteckning och bilagor. Titel: Kvalitet i skuggan av alternativa driftsformer – En studie om kvalitetsbegreppet och dess betydelse efter avregleringen av omsorg i Falkenbergs kommun Författare: Camilla Stiernflycht & Sandra Johansson Handledare: Mikael Jonasson, Docent kulturgeografi, Högskolan i Halmstad. Examinator: Carin Staland Nyman Sammanfattning: Syftet med arbetet är att undersöka olika aktörers syn på hur kvalitet uppnås i tolkningen av lagar och upphandlingsregler. Kvalitet belyses genom att se på verksamheten genom några teoretiska begrepp - brukare, empowerment, imple- mentering, lagstiftning, upphandling och New Public Management. Målet med studien är att visa på de kvalitativa effekterna av Falkenbergs kommuns val att använda alternativa driftsformer inom personlig assistans, handikapp- och äldre- omsorg. Att valet föll på Falkenbergs kommun, beror på att de valt att lägga ut all handikappomsorg, all personlig assistans och 43 % av äldreomsorgen på externa utförare. Det tillvägagångsätt som använts har sin grund i kvalitativ forskningsan- sats, vilken består av semistrukturerade intervjuer och studier av offentliga doku- ment. Vidare har insamlad data analyserats utifrån New Public Management, em- powerment och genom kvalitets- och implementeringsteorier. Slutsatsen är att Falkenbergs kommuns politiker och tjänstemän menar att kvalitet är något indivi- duellt vilket vi ser som positivt då man ur ett empowermentperspektiv ser den enskilde brukarens röst som viktig. Något enhetligt svar på frågan får vi dock inte. Vidare ser vi att de externa utförare som undersökts har ett något bättre resultat över lag. Undantaget är dock daglig verksamhet där den kommunala driften får generellt bättre skattning. Det uppföljningsansvar Falkenbergs kommun har, på upphandlade verksamheter, är inte genomfört med hänvisning till en överbelastad planeringsavdelning.
