Stadsodling, ur ett kommunalt perspektiv : en översiktlig genomgång av förvaltningars arbete med stadsodling, samt kopplingen mellan hållbar stadsutveckling och stadsodling

This study has a focus on common urban gardens and how different municipalities have chosen to work with the subject. It is based on written papers and an analysis of oral interviews within five Swedish municipalities. The paper is introduced by a briefing of different literature (science, books, and municipality documents) to generate an understanding of the connection between urban sustainable development and common urban garden projects. The second part is my analysis of the answers from the oral interviews. The main conclusions are that common urban garden projects can never be planned out completely and that every project needs to find their own strategy for their city and place, but that you meanwhile can find inspiration from other projects that can help you to find your own way. Hopefully my analysis and conclusions help municipalities get the courage to start their own urban gardens in their cities
