Powerful Welfare
Proud Reykjavík
We put children first
- By creating 1500 new preschool spots
- and increase funding for the maintenance and development of preschool facilities to 30 billion over the term.
- By making preschool access a legal right
- After paternal leave, as has been done in other nordic countries – with governmental agreements on funding.
- By supporting people with children
- Preventing a double preschool system and “child tax” on families.
- By investing in the future
- With additional support in primary school and an emphasis on Icelandic as a second language for children with foreign backgrounds.
We Will Roll out the Red Carpet
- By making the administration work
- Simplifying licensing for the operation and construction of housing.
- By making the life of business owner easier
- ensuring they have one contact to the city administration.
- By building on trust
- So the entrepreneurs and businesses can hit the ground running – but can receive guidance if necessary.
Full steam ahead on transportation
- By improving traffic flow
- Start constructions of the Transportation Agreement in its entirety
- With ambitious development of the City Line
- No more committees and delays
- By continuing developments of tunnels and cycling paths
- With an emphasis on connection city districts even better
We Will Cultivate our Neighborhoods
- By supporting outdoor activities in our local communities
- Finishing development of a Ski area in Breiðholt and a new golf course design

- Make it easier for entrepreneurs to open up a business
I want to lead change in Reykjavík. With Social Democratic values. So the system can work for the people, and to strengthen what we have together.
