In the beginning of 2020 I studied Design for sustainable development at Malmo University where I worked together with five others in a design project which was about improving the district, Sofielund, in Malmo. The focus was on social, economic and environmental development along with UN’s developmental goals. After researching and interviewing organisations and people living in the area we learned that there was a lack of a ”community feeling” along with a wish to focus on more green projects. We then started creating an idea from the needs we were presented, which would include as many people living in the area as possible.

 

That was when we created Gröna vagnen which was focused on the social and environmental development in the area. The idea was to provide Sofielund with a garden wagon including tools, small plants and ”good- to-know” tips from neighbors that would visit different gardens around the district to contribute to communal gardening. The project was supposed to be administrated by BID Sofielund in cooperation with Växtvärket which was going to provide the project with staff and physical movement of the wagon. My roll in the project was to design the logotype and the wagon, do basic research, SWOT-analysis, making sure that we followed UN’s developmental goals and to create the collaboration between BID Sofielund and Växtvärket.
