About the project
The LAG board has chosen to prioritize the Hällefors dream with approval as it will, in its entirety, lead to the fulfillment of the local development strategy. The Hällefors dream will contribute to strengthening the collective self-image of the industrial town, both collectively and individually.
The Hällefors dream will lead to increased quality of life for rural residents who receive guidance and tools to realize their concrete dream projects. The project period is dedicated to inspiration, mentoring, knowledge acquisition, and networking.
This project has emerged from long conversations between the non-profit, private, and public sectors – a project group that met in a dream to challenge the law of Jante and the mentality of the industrial town. The LAG board believes that the Hällefors dream has good conditions to create a lasting creative meeting place in Hällefors in the form of the “Dream Studio.”.
