My town 2035 – what is your vision?

Residents are invited to participate in shaping the vision and strategy for Hafnarfjörður.

The City of Hafnarfjörður is now taking the first steps in a comprehensive strategic planning process for the city, with a view to shaping a vision for the municipality up to the year 2035 to support annual goal-setting. The participation of residents is sought in shaping this vision and the comprehensive strategic plan, extending to the year 2035.

The portal is open until and including 14 February. Take part! 

Residents of Hafnarfjörður and others interested are encouraged to take an active part in the project and thus contribute to the best possible vision for the town. A special area has been set up on the website. A Better Hafnarfjörður where residents can submit ideas and suggestions for areas of focus. There are three main categories on Better Hafnarfjörður, which are linked to specific key objectives. These categories and key objectives relate to: 

1. health, education and culture
2. Society and environment 
3. Economy, settlement and services

Under each category, residents can easily submit their ideas for priorities, and view and like others' ideas. 

Extensive consultation and dialogue on priorities

Hafnarfjörður emphasises achieving the broadest possible consultation and dialogue on the priorities, which will in turn guide the path ahead for the town. Several meetings have already been held with various groups, including the business community, council staff, representatives of young people, the elderly and immigrants. Global goals and The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child are taken into consideration and are an important guiding principle for the town in this work.

Think big and share our ideas!
