The research project SODA

The research project SODA, Collaboration for a sustainable management of stormwater, which was carried out under the leadership of RISE in collaboration with i.a. the partners Stormwater&Sewers at LTU and Östersund municipality are coming to an end. For two years, representatives from all parts of the community building process have fought for a change in society towards a more sustainable stormwater and stormwater management with a focus on neighborhood land.
