14. The important in this work is the co-production aspect. All services and activities are created together with the local stakeholders. A bottom up initiative for sustainable development. With the growing of the project local stakeholders and guest will name the demands that are in the area and the demands that the guest have. Together, also with the public and private sector, will the citizen develop and create services that answers to those demands.
