Communication
Communication is an obvious and integral part of the City’s operations. All communication should be active, accessible and credible.
Every day, the City’s employees have hundreds of thousands of contacts and meetings. The City of Stockholm is a public organisation that ultimately exists for Stockholmers. This means that the City has an important responsibility for information. It must be easy for Stockholmers to access reliable information. It must also be easy to have an insight and be involved in the decisions and anything that affects the everyday lives of Stockholmers.
The City’s communication work provides operational support to realising the City Council’s budget, goals and vision. Communication contributes to the quality of our operations and the development of the City. Conscious work on communication enables a uniform and relevant image of the City of Stockholm.
