The Multiply project, which has received funding from the EU’s Horizon 2020 programme, aims to get municipalities to play a more active role in combating climate change in the areas of planning and redeveloping neighbourhoods, land use, identifying the most effective energy solutions, moving people and goods, and finding ways of involving local people in the process. 

 ‘Studiespåret’ is a collaborative project run by the municipalities of Karlskoga and Degerfors to help reduce unemployment among young people aged between 16 and 24. The aim is to offer study-oriented activities to increase the number of young people who complete their upper-secondary studies. The project will focus in particular on young newcomers and look for ways to reduce gender-segregated choices with regard to education and training.

3TR, a project run by Örebro University, is part of the Innovative Medicines Initiative, an EU-funded research programme. 3TR brings together researchers from 15 countries to look at 7 common diseases. The aim is to find treatments that are tailored to individual patients and are thus more effective. Among other things, the researchers will be looking at the molecules within cells to find the causes of the diseases.
