New municipal facilities are ready, everything from new schools, athletics arenas, riding stables and an ice and event arena. Kunskapshuset, with education in the center, has gained international attention for its unique design. In Gällivare, indigenous peoples and national minorities work together, and our cultural life develops in step with the transformation of society.
