Our Projects
Here, we present projects that we run ourselves, as well as initiatives in which we collaborate with other organizations. These projects reflect our work in practice and demonstrate how we translate knowledge and ideas into concrete actions. Here, you can learn about both ongoing and completed projects, their objectives, content, and results.
The Role of Trees in Times of Crisis and Climate Change
– A Crossroads for the Cemeteries of the Future
The project investigates how trees in culturally and historically significant cemeteries can be managed and renewed in a long-term sustainable manner. By combining climate-adapted tree selection, soil improvement, climate projections, and biodiversity analyses, the project is developing a knowledge-based foundation for future decisions regarding tree planting, maintenance, and replacement. The goal is to strengthen both natural values, the cultural environment, and the site’s social function in an era of climate change.
NORDLOCAL
Trädkontoret AB, together with its Nordic partners, has been commissioned by the Nordic Council of Ministers to lead the two-year NORD-LOCAL-NbS project.
The project builds on Yggdrasil – The Living Nordic City and takes the next step from strategy to action, to support Nordic municipalities in implementing and scaling up nature-based solutions. The focus is on practical tools, local demonstration sites, and capacity building.

European Treetag Campaign
TreeTag is a European campaign that highlights the vital importance of trees in our cities. By marking individual trees with signs and sharing information about their size, species, and ecosystem services, the campaign raises awareness of how trees contribute to, among other things, cooling, biodiversity, and better urban environments. The campaign was carried out in 2024 by 12 organizations from 9 countries and garnered significant attention—and now a new initiative is being planned.

YGGDRASIL
Yggdrasil - The Living Nordic City was an initiative part of the Nordic Council of Ministers' program on NBS, and focused on nature-based solutions (NBS). The project was coordinated by Trädkontoret (The Tree Office) and led by Clara Lind and Johan Östberg.
