A Just Transition to a Sustainable Municipality

Project: Research

Project Details

Description

This project is a collaboration between Falköping Municipality and Lund University and is motivated by Falköping's ambition to integrate social sustainability more systematically in their climate strategy. We have identified three challenges to be investigated in the project: the transition to fossil-free transport, steps towards sustainable meat and milk production and consumption, and local opposition to e.g. wind power and restoration of wetlands. Another possible focus area is Falköpings uranium deposit in relation to the national transition design.
