Local, Sustainable Lives Løvstakken is a voluntary organization that originated in Bergen. The organization has a clear focus on the UN Sustainable Development Goals and works to promote a culture of exchange, sharing, repair and community. Through various projects and activities, run by volunteers, they offer social meeting places for the local community, where residents can gather and share experiences.
The organization also offers used clothes for sale, as well as clothing repair services. At Solheimsgaten 60, visitors can enjoy a cup of coffee while shopping for used clothes, and there is the opportunity to hand in clean and well-used clothes. Local encourages residents to realize their own ideas and activities, and offers resources such as sewing machines for repairing clothes. The organization receives support from Bergen Municipality and local actors, which contributes to their sustainable initiatives.
