17 goals in i 1 park

Fabege has, with the help of BIG - Bjarke Ingels Group, developed a master plan and development idea for Solna Business Park. The starting shot will be the park, whose concept is supported by the UN's 17 global sustainability goals, which will contribute to a more activated and vibrant street environment where people are given more space. 193 countries in the world have adopted the UN Agenda 2030, the most ambitious agenda ever for sustainable development. The agenda contains 17 global goals for sustainable development to eradicate poverty and hunger, realize human rights for all, achieve equality and create lasting protection for our planet and our natural resources.

The concept is designed with different elements and installations that in different ways will support and inform about all 17 global goals. To make them easy to understand, we have enlisted the help of Good Life Goals, whose interpretation of the goals can be applied to both children and adults, regardless of how limited control you have over your own lifestyle. The new park is expected to be completed in fall 2021 and will be a destination for those who want to stay for a short or long time, to play with the children, challenge their colleagues to a paddle match, have lunch or have an outdoor meeting.

Goal 1 - No Poverty

Installation: Sharing Station

Use this installation to share and donate what you can, to people who need it more. At the same time, seize the opportunity to reflect and discuss how to save, borrow and invest responsibly to contribute to the positive development.

Goal 2 - Zero Hunger

Installation: Dinner Table

Here we have created a place to eat together outdoors and share experiences about food. A table that is accessible to everyone.

Goal 3 - Good Health and Well-being

Installation: Outdoor Gym

Try to take care of yourself and your health and do things that make you feel good. All forms of exercise can have a positive effect on your health. You become more alert, stronger and your memory can be improved. In addition, you sleep better. In the outdoor gym, you can exercise to stay healthy.

Goal 4 - Quality Education

Installation: Variation of Games

Here is a variety of games to try. Sit down and learn or teach someone some classic games. Feel free to challenge a friend, we feel good when we’re spending time with each other.

Goal 5 - Gender Equality

Installation: Seesaws

Use this installation to learn the basic principles of equality. Experience how unfair it can be when things are unequal on one axis and compare to the other equal axis of the seesaw.  

Goal 6 - Clean Water and Sanitation

Installation: Clean Water Station

Water is a fundamental human right, yet one tenth of the world's population does not have access to clean water today. In Sweden, we are lucky to always have access to clean water, but it is important that we take care of it and do not waste it unnecessarily. Here you can enjoy fresh clean water, but do not take more than you need.

 

Goal 7 - Affordable and Clean Energy

Installation: Solar Energy Bicycle Stand

Here you can park your bike under the cover of Solar panels that provides clean energy to the area, and if you have an E-bike you can also charge it here.

Goal 8 - Decent Work and Economic Growth

Installation: Public Sharing Library

Use this installation to share knowledge and learn new skills. This is a small public library where you as visitors of the park can share books and knowledge with each other and encourage the exchange of ideas.

Goal 9 - Industry, Infrastructure and Innovation

Installation: Wi-Fi Bench

Surely it's hard when the battery runs out on your phone? Here we have made sure that you can connect to the internet and charge your phone or tablet. Or why not take your meeting outdoors in the park?

Goal 10 - Reduce inequalities

Installation: Inclusive Swing

This is a large, playful swing that many can use together and feel included in both the game and the park.

Goal 11 - Sustainable Cities and Communities

Installation: The Future of Solna Business Park

Solna Business Park is facing major changes and in the coming years the area will be developed in many ways. In this model you can take part in the vision for the area and how we want it to change. We hope you want to join us on that journey.

Goal 12 - Responsible Consumption and Production 

Installation: Recycling Games

Here you can learn the importance of recycling in an engaging and fun way. By recycling, we can save lots of resources and protect both people and the environment. By keeping different materials apart, most things can also be recycled so that they can become new products.

Goal 13 - Climate Action

Installation: Bicycle Repair Station

There are many benefits of biking. You contribute to a better climate, you save money, you get free exercise and a better mental health. We want to encourage more people to use their bike instead of the car and here you can repair your bike if needed.

Goal 14 - Life Below Water

Installation: Ocean Plastic Bench

Today, it is estimated that about 269,000 tons of plastic are floating around in our oceans and if we continue to spread plastic in nature at the same rate as we do today, the sea, measured in weight, will consist of more plastic than fish in 2050. It can take up to 400 years for nature to break down plastic and some plastic cannot be broken down at all. This bench is made of plastic that is collected from or adjacent to our oceans.

Goal 15 - Life on Land

Installation: Bird Houses

We want to improve the bird life in the area and provide wonderful habitats for the birds. Therefore, we have chosen to set up bird nests both in the trees and in this installation.

Goal 16 - Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions

Installation: Human Rights Long Bench

Use this long bench to host discussion and learn about other people and their opinion. As a bonus, each one of the 30 stones that makes up the long bench represent the human rights. 

Goal 17 - Partnership for the Goals

Installation: Padel Court

In this installation you can meet in a fun and engaging way. Challenge your friends or colleagues with a game! Padel is a sport that most people can enjoy, regardless of skill or age. We hope that the Padel court will contribute to activity and life in the park, which also contributes to safety and well-being.

Solna Business Park

Solna Business Park is facing major changes and in 2021 will not only start work on the park, but also with Parkhuset - the innovation project with halved climate impact. The area is one of Fabege's prioritized district projects and will in the coming years be transformed into a new attractive area for both companies and residents.
