Partnership model for sustainable neighbourhoods, KIEPPI (6Aika project)
Duration: 1.8.2019–30.9.2021
Project partners: City of Tampere, City of Espoo, Turku Science Park Ltd.Funding: European Regional Development Fund
Project in a nutshell: The cities of Tampere, Espoo and Turku have decided to become carbon neutral by 2029 to 2035. All three cities are in the midst of developing sustainable and carbon neutral neighborhoods (Tampere – Hiedanranta area, Espoo – Kera area, Turku – Science Park area in Kupittaa) and in this project the aim is to tie the development closely with business creation around circular, platform and sharing economy. The planning and piloting of solutions in e.g. different services, waste management and reuse of resources is done in cooperation with companies, research organisations, cities and citizens. This procedure will be developed into a partnership model that can be scaled and profited also in other neighborhoods and cities.
