Albert Edman, Leader for Cities in Transition and Internationalisation Strategist at Viable Cities, as well as RISE North Sweden Coordinator. Together, we dive deep into how Swedish cities are working towards climate neutrality and how this links to the broader vision of the New European Bauhaus (NEB).
We begin by unpacking Viable Cities: its mission, the cities involved, and how it operates within Sweden. Albert walks us through the full journey from the first contact with a municipality to actual, on-the-ground transformation sharing concrete examples of projects and methods used along the way.
We then explore the New European Bauhaus, a bold EU initiative bridging the worlds of sustainability, inclusion, and aesthetics. Albert shares insights on how NEB has influenced local projects in Sweden, how it helps integrate cultural and social values into urban transformations, and how these dimensions connect to energy systems, mobility, and other technical aspects.
