Välkommen till Institutionen för kulturvårds högre seminarium där Jennie Sjöholm presenterar resultat från projektet Goal conflicts in the green transition: A method toolbox for cultural value creation in planning.
The ongoing green transition brings both hope and expectations, alongside pressing socio-cultural heritage challenges in many communities, not least in northern Sweden. The coexistence of new industrial activities and cultural heritage values frequently leads to conflicts, which could potentially be transformed into synergies through dialogue, capacity-building, foresight, and appropriate methodological approaches in planning practices.
This seminar discusses findings from the three-year transdisciplinary research collaboration Goal conflicts in the green transition: A method toolbox for cultural value creation in planning. The project investigates three Swedish municipalities experiencing rapid change due to the green industrial transition: Borlänge, Älvsbyn, and Kiruna. It delivers a multidimensional method toolbox designed to support industry, municipalities, consultants, and civil society actors by integrating value-creating perspectives and cultural values into dialogue and planning processes.
