Drivkrafter för hållbar konsumtion på lokal nivå
Summary
The report presents findings from the UNLOCK project, which investigated how incentive structures influence sustainable consumption behaviors in Swedish municipalities. It emphasizes that local governments can drive sustainable consumption both directly through their own operations and indirectly by influencing households and private businesses. The document provides recommendations for strategies to strengthen municipal efforts to decouple economic growth from environmental degradation, aligning with Sustainable Development Goal 12 and Sweden's national strategy for sustainable consumption launched in 2016.
