Local scale initiative for a resource efficient community – the case of the Hökarängen community

The project is owned by Stockholm’s (and Sweden’s) largest public housing company, Stockholmshem, who implements the project in collaboration with Sustainable Innovation AB. SEI is responsible for the action research component and a number of the project’s sub-activities.

One of the sub-activities which SEI has responsibility over is a network of “local sustainability ambassadors”. This network will have an important function in shaping the activities and for ensuring broad acceptance and take up of measures and social practices by residents at the local level.
