INITIATIVES WE LOVE
Each day, through innovative partnerships, concrete initiatives and our sharing of best practices — both inside our malls and throughout their local ecosystems — we strive to live up to our commitments to sustainability and innovation. With one simple promise: to take action in the community.

Diabetes is one of the major public diseases that is growing rapidly, with almost 500 000 people in Sweden suffering from some form of diabetes. In Sweden, it is estimated that more than 600 000 people will have diabetes by 2030 if the trend is not reversed. But many people don't even realise they have the disease, with 150,000 walking around with diabetes without knowing it.
