Exploring biodiversity and urban transformation in Gothenburg and Malmö

Many port and industrial cities are undergoing vast changes that transform the city’s fabric into anew. In summer 2024, we visited Gothenburg and got to know how the city’s former industrial port Frihamnen is being developed in a collaborative and experimental way. On our way, we also visited Alnarp’s landscape laboratory, Limhamn’s limestone quarry and stopped in Malmö to explore biodiversity in a transforming city.

Shared Nature – Shared Biodiversity!

Thanks to TURNS-mobility funding, we, researcher and university instructor DA Laura Uimonen and PhD-student Elina Sirén from Tampere University, were able to spend a week in Uppsala and Stockholm, meeting fellow researchers and students, and observing first-hand exciting urban development projects.
