Involvements
Project KaxÄs
Project KaxĂ„s is investing in young families looking for a change of lifestyle and who want to move to a scenic rural area with an active and responsible civil society. The project started as an effort to reverse the trend towards centralisation and safeguard the local school in rural KaxĂ„s, a village between Ă re and Ăstersund in JĂ€mtland County situated in a beautiful valley between HĂ€llberget and KaxĂ„sbacken.
Since its inception in 2019, the project has created new homes for some 50 incoming young families, increasing the villageâs population by 160 per cent. With the addition of almost 70 children, the municipality is now building a new, larger preschool in KaxĂ„s. By creating a sense of security and taking overall responsibility for the incoming families, the project has demonstrated that rural areas are in fact an accessible alternative for the modern young family.
