Important results from the project
To rethink whose voices we are listening to while planning the future of Gällivare and its inhabitants? Whose perspectives and interests come first and whose ones are kept silent? Which values are being overseen, forgotten or omitted?
Expected long term effects
A discussion around values. The word malm is ever present in the city’s vocabulary. Malm is defined as lucrative soil. The fact that this word is so present makes visible how that the whole town is approaching the land, and how it has derived its identity and purpose from it. To be able to create inclusive, sustainable and beautiful living conditions, we must challenge our hierarchy of values: from malm back to soil.
Approach and implementation
Interdisciplinary team work and sketching. See www.of-public-interest.com for a wider understanding on how we work.
