Purpose and objectives<\/h2>\n

Through collaboration, create the conditions for sufficient water of the right quality for the city’s various needs with a minimum of environmental and climate impact.<\/p>\n

Expected impacts and results<\/h2>\n

The project represents a significant step towards sustainable water for all by 2050 by:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Addressing technology, governance and behavior change leading to reduced water withdrawals.<\/li>\n
  • Developing and implementing solutions to reduce both water losses and overuse.<\/li>\n
  • By making consumption visible and creating incentives for action, the project strengthens water efficiency.<\/li>\n
  • Identifying and addressing barriers that currently limit reuse. The project increases knowledge and understanding of water quality adapted to needs, enabling wider use of recycled water.<\/li>\n
  • Facilitating diversification of water sources and qualities, reduced leakage and improved management of the water and sanitation system, for a more robust supply system. Local solutions relieve the central network in critical situations, such as water shortages or the risk of waterborne diseases, and provide security even during disruptions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Planned approach and implementation<\/h2>\n

    The transition lab will be established in stages, with Gothenburg as a test bed, and can then be expanded into a national node for innovation and advice.<\/p>\n
