The Skövde Municipal Group works together to promote sustainable development

Sustainable development is about meeting today’s needs without compromising the opportunities of future generations. Success requires cooperation—and now the Skövde municipal group is taking an important step by releasing its first joint sustainability report.

The sustainability report is based on Vision Skövde 2040, the City Council’s goals, and the municipality’s policy on sustainable development.

– The Group-wide sustainability report provides a comprehensive overview of how we and the other companies within Skövde Stadshus AB are working on sustainability. It creates transparency and a common foundation for continued development, where we can benefit from collaboration and our shared strengths. For Skövdebostäder, the report is an important contribution to the transition toward a sustainable society and an expression of our long-term commitment to sustainability,” says Sofie Spetz, environmental and sustainability coordinator at Skövdebostäder.

Read the group-wide sustainability report on the Skövde Municipality website. 

Central Collaboration

The companies that make up the group have different missions but all play an important role in Skövde’s development. Through their work on the first joint sustainability report, they have also taken significant steps forward together—not only in terms of results but also in terms of collaboration.

– The journey leading up to the report has been central. The work has been characterized by a bold, creative, and inquisitive approach, with experiences and perspectives shared across organizational boundaries. This has contributed to deeper collaboration and a greater consensus on goals and priorities. “This is extremely valuable for the residents of Skövde,” says Johan Rahmberg, City Manager of Skövde Municipality and CEO of the parent company Skövde Stadshus AB.

Work is now continuing with a full focus on translating these insights into practical action and, together, building on the foundation that has been laid for a sustainable shared future.
