About
Kestävät Kunnat is a government headquartered in Lapua, Finland specializing in Other.
Kestävät is a collaborative initiative between five municipalities in South Ostrobothnia, Finland: Alavus, Kauhava, Kurikka, Kuortane, and Lapua. The municipalities have jointly developed and implemented a regional climate strategy to address climate change challenges. The initiative focuses on energy efficiency improvements, reducing municipal energy and water consumption, optimizing waste management and sorting practices, decreasing transport and logistics emissions, and managing food waste. Municipalities are committed to an energy efficiency agreement (2017-2025) targeting a 10.5% reduction in energy consumption compared to 2015 levels. Work is coordinated through internal sustainability coordinators across all municipal departments, peer learning between municipalities, and a municipal leaders' climate forum that tracks implementation progress and integrates climate goals into municipal budgeting.
