What is Umeå Together?

A living Umeå is built by the people who live here.

Umeå Together samlar initiativen, fonderna och människorna bakom dem på ett ställe — och håller ekonomin öppen för alla att se. Mindre pappersarbete, mer tillit, mer av det Umeå du faktiskt vill leva i.

How it works

Open from the first krona.

01

Discover what’s alive

Browse real initiatives and funds across Umeå — what they do, what they’ve raised, who’s behind them.

02

The money stays open

Every krona in and out lives on Open Collective, with Massvis holding the finances as fiscal host. You never have to take our word for it — you can see the receipts.

03

Take your step

Start an initiative, support a fund, or get involved. Whatever you bring, it’s visible — and it counts.
