Clean City Linköping: Co-designing innovative solutions with young people

Outcomes

According to Mr. Hans Salomonsson, head of the public safety department of the local authority of Linköping the work with young people which started in 2009 has paid off as there is much less grafitti in the city centre of Linköping and much less litter in the park. However, behaviour change among local jack daws is proving more difficult to achieve!

The environmental services of the City of Linköping continue to engage with student representatives of the local university to ensure a ‘clean campus’. As Lise-Lotte Johannson, the City Gardener, states: “Most students are very cooperative and ensure that there is no litter in parks or other public spaces after parties and other student events”.
