Through a case study of Lake M\u00e4laren and broad collaboration, concrete development needs were identified. A key added result was the concept of PFAS:Lab M\u00e4laren, a future transition lab for long-term, systematic PFAS management. The project also laid a strong foundation for continued national mobilization.<\/p>\n<h2>Expected long-term effects<\/h2>\n<p>The project is expected to contribute to a more sustainable and systematic approach to PFAS management in Sweden\u2019s water resources. In the long term, this includes strengthened collaboration between authorities, municipalities, industry and research, improved governance, and more targeted, resource-efficient measures. Continued work with PFAS:Lab M\u00e4laren enables solution implementation, protection of drinking water, and ecosystem restoration.<\/p>\n<h2>Approach and implementation<\/h2>\n<p>The project was carried out as planned through four work packages: knowledge gathering, synthesis, case study, and future planning. Activities were relevant and aligned with project goals. The timeline was followed, and no major external obstacles occurred. Collaboration worked very well with strong engagement from all partners. A positive outcome was the strong interest from external stakeholders, which strengthened the project\u00b4s legitimacy and future potential.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Access project results<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Download the final report (PDF)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Related project<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/waterwisesocieties.se\/en\/projekt_\/collaboration-and-action-plan-for-sustainable-management-of-pfas-in-swedens-water-resources\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Collaboration and action plan for sustainable management of PFAS in Sweden&#8217;s water resources<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"template":"","publication_category":[44],"class_list":["post-1377","publication","type-publication","status-publish","hentry","publication_category-project-results"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/waterwisesocieties.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/publication\/1377","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/waterwisesocieties.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/publication"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/waterwisesocieties.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/publication"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/waterwisesocieties.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1377"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"publication_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/waterwisesocieties.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/publication_category?post=1377"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
