Viable Cities is a strategic innovation program with a focus on smart sustainable cities. The programme's mission is to speed up the transition to climate neutral cities by 2030 with a good life for everyone within the planet's boundaries.
Viable Cities is a catalyst for new forms of cooperation between cities, industry, academia, research institutes and civil society. This is to mobilise to change the way our cities work in line with our national environmental and climate objectives and our international commitments linked to the global sustainability goals - Agenda 2030 - and the Paris Agreement.
The programme's time frame is 2017-2030 and is implemented with support in a concerted effort by Vinnova, the Swedish Energy Agency and Formas, where the Swedish Energy Agency is the principal authority. KTH is the host organization.
