The project brings together actors that do not usually work together. Municipalities, companies, academia, police, innovation-promoting actors and civil society will work together to achieve the overall goals. This is particularly important to create movement around common challenges in society, where perceived safety in the public outdoor environment is one such. The kick-off brought together stakeholders from Karlstad University, Compare, the police, Karlstad Municipality and Karlstad El- och stadsnät. It is hoped that the project will contribute to lasting collaborative structures that will also favour future cooperation between the actors.
