Coordinated funding. Viable Cities will work in the following ways to support the municipality’s funding needs for the climate transition and to promote collaboration and synergies between government agencies and other stakeholders that fund climate transition and sustainable urban development. • Viable Cities shall continue to work with Climate City Contract 2030 with the 23 cities and five government agencies involved in the programme. • Through the Council for Sustainable Cities, Viable Cities has launched a collabora- tion to create synergies between urban climate transition grants from government agencies and Climate City Contract 2030. The agencies are currently working to coordinate the various initiatives under way in the field of sustainable urban devel- opment, see Section 5.3 Coordinated funding. • Viable Cities collaborates with Kommuninvest and the European Investment Bank (EIB) among others in order to develop forms for strengthening the long-term funding of municipal climate investment plans. Viable Cities continues to develop forms for climate investment plans for cities, the aim being to support all cities in their efforts towards climate neutrality by 2030.
Coordinated funding. To create better foresight and centralized information, the government agencies continuously develop coordination of the various efforts under way in the field of sustainable urban development and climate transition. Development takes place within the framework of several of the agencies’ existing tasks and assignments, such as the Council for Sustainable Cities, strategic innovation programmes, the national research programmes for climate and sustainable community building, as well as the European Regional Development Fund. During 2022, the agencies have begun initial tests with some of the cities, in order to develop, in dialogue, a method for portfolio analysis of the agencies’ collective fund- ing for cities. The innovation work is planned to continue in 2023. The long-term goal is for the work to contribute to work on cities’ climate investment plans.

Coordinated funding. The agencies are constantly developing coordination in respect of ongoing initiatives in the field of sustainable urban development and climate transition so as to create better advance planning and comprehensive information. In 2024, the agencies are intending to deliver aggregated output data from some of the agencies’ funding to all 23 municipalities, based on the innovation process on methodology development for local portfolio analyses that was conducted in 2023. The innovation work will also continue in 2024 with a view to improving the quality and coverage of data supplied, and by means of one or more in-depth projects in collaboration with certain interested municipalities in order to streamline the process and increase the benefits for recipients. The long-term goal of the portfolio analyses is to assist in efforts relating to cities’ climate investment plans. 11 See pressannouncement from the Swedish Internet Foundation (Swedish) Xxxxxxxxxxx.xx is the joint website of the Sustainable Cities Council.
