Gothenburg Culture Festival
Sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. To achieve sustainable development, there must be a balance between the three dimensions: ecological, social and financial. We assume that all our contributors and collaborators work actively with the three dimensions of sustainability. This is a requirement to be part av the festival. The Gothenburg Culture Festival works as a platform that strengthens and visualizes this. Our goal is Sustainable destination 2030 with the following areas in focus:
