Programme
With less than 10 years left in the implementation of Agenda 2030, what happens in cities and towns is more important than ever. Over the past 10 years, the Swedish Association of Local Authorities and Regions has been supporting local and regional governments in more than 20 countries to plan and develop more sustainable and inclusive urban areas, through SymbioCity. Join us to hear the experiences of local governments from around the world on how to create sustainable cities and communities.
