Malmö – Social enterprises and the inclusive and circular city

How circular economy and social enterprises contribute to the inclusive city

Social enterprises and NGOs provide important services to the local community addressing social issues, and often with a strong link to the circular economy.

Inequality in health is a challenge and a focus of attention for the city of Malmö. Malmö was the first city in the world to launch a local commission for social sustainability, the “Malmö Commission”, which finished its work in 2013.  The work to build a more social sustainable city, with no health inequalities, is an ongoing process.
