The County Administrative Board and Agenda 2030
The governor of Värmland county described their work at the county administrative board. Sustainability is an important factor in their work and working with Agenda 2030 is one of the things that show that. This is one of the very promising reasons for us to work well together.
For the County Administrative Board to work with Agenda 2030 means this, among other things:
- ”work long-term to achieve the goals of Agenda 2030
- cooperate with the county’s actors
- disseminate information about the work on Agenda 2030 in the county
- contribute to the implementation of Agenda 2030 in the county.”
