The purpose of this study was to investigate how municipal project managersperceive their ability to work on the implementation of the goals in Agenda 2030in their projects and in project management. The research question aimed to explorewhether the respondents had the opportunity and habit of working from asustainability perspective, and if so, how and what they did. The study wasconducted using a qualitative research method with an inductive approach, and datawas collected through semi-structured interviews with respondents active inrelevant professions. The interviews were coded and analyzed thematically,resulting in three themes.The results show that project managers are knowledgeable and viewsustainability as important both in their professional roles and in private contexts.Respondents stay updated on sustainability news on their own initiative, both forwork-related needs and personal interest. Their knowledge and interest likely playa central role in the development of sustainability efforts within projects, as noneof the respondents are aware of any specific training strategies adopted in any ofthe municipalities. Respondents in small municipalities do not perceive thatdecision-makers have taken steps to define and prioritize sustainability goals, andthey do not believe that anyone is working on it at that level of detail. In smallmunicipalities, respondents believe this may be due to fewer resources in terms oftime, knowledge, and finances.For projects and project management, there is no explicit specificmethodology to work with to ensure sustainability in the early stages, butrespondents say they "keep the sustainability mindset" in every situation. When itcomes to balancing environmental, economic, and social sustainability, theeconomy is seen as the biggest obstacle, as making long-term economicallysustainable decisions is difficult in times of strained municipal finances.
