In eastern Malm\u00f6, a neighbourhood is struggling with its reputation \u2013 and with the hope that doors will open for the people who live there.

Around 34,000 people<\/strong> live in Roseng\u00e5rd, a district in the east of Malm\u00f6.<\/strong> The large housing estate was built about 60 years ago to cope with Sweden\u2019s rapid population growth at the time. Today many of these estates are regarded as social hotspots. Roseng\u00e5rd is one of them.

The Swedish police list Roseng\u00e5rd among its \u2018particularly vulnerable areas\u2019, which are marked by difficult socio-economic conditions and high crime. Shaped by social exclusion, the neighbourhood is viewed negatively in many other parts of Sweden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Hamburg-based photographer Nora Schwarz has been visiting the district regularly since the summer of 2022. We met Nora in a caf\u00e9. She told us about her impressions of the neighbourhood, its residents and how people live together. New perspectives and an open view beyond the negative stigma \u2013 that is what Nora\u2019s project is about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n

Roseng\u00e5rd\u2019s young generation<\/h2>\n\n \n <\/div>\n\n \n\n\n\n\n

Young people make up a large share of Roseng\u00e5rd\u2019s population. A third of the residents are under 18; in the Herrg\u00e5rden area it is almost half. This is especially noticeable after school, when children meet outside to play. The green spaces framed by blocks of flats in the heart of Roseng\u00e5rd offer plenty of room for that. In the summer holidays, too, various charities run lots of programmes and activities for the children. They have breakfast together, do crafts and sport and take part in art workshops.

In her interview with Nora, 24-year-old Fatme also stresses how people stick together and support each other. A trained social worker, Fatme lives in Roseng\u00e5rd herself and explains: \u2018Roseng\u00e5rd is not a ghetto. We have a lot of love, people notice each other and many want to change their lives. But who ever talks about their stories?\u2019 Fatme also knows that many of the young adults living here are studying and want to go into good jobs. Some, however, have moved away because in Roseng\u00e5rd they came up against limits that stopped them developing further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Egzona is the mother of two children who go to nursery in Roseng\u00e5rd. She herself was born and raised in Denmark and moved to Roseng\u00e5rd with her husband and children in 2016. She has concerns about her children\u2019s future. While they are small, she says, Roseng\u00e5rd is a good place for families. But later on Egzona wants her children to go to school in another part of Malm\u00f6, where they will get a better education with better opportunities. The community police officer Johannes also tells Nora: \u2018Because of the neighbourhood\u2019s tarnished reputation and its crime, good teachers usually prefer to work elsewhere.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n

\n\n
\n \"\"\n \n <\/div>\n\n

\u2018We still have a big problem of trust here.<\/strong> Many people don\u2019t see the police as help and don\u2019t call us when something happens. So I try to win people\u2019s trust, and today most of them know me.\u2019 \u2013 Johannes (43), community police officer in Roseng\u00e5rd<\/p>\n<\/figcaption>\n \n <\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n

\n\n

Safety in Roseng\u00e5rd<\/h2>\n\n \n <\/div>\n\n \n\n\n\n\n

The job of the community police is to get to know residents and win their trust. In Roseng\u00e5rd, many community police officers and residents know each other personally. The community police are particularly concerned about young people: the aim is to give them a hopeful view of their future, an alternative to a path into crime. But there is still a major problem of trust in the police, reports Johannes, who has worked in Roseng\u00e5rd since 2008.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A lot has changed for the better. But it takes time. Slow change is something the media rarely report on. Instead, in the past, mainly negative reports shaped the media image of the district, as Roseng\u00e5rd increasingly had to deal with problems of violence and gangs. Headlines about a rising murder rate and no-go areas made the place known.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But Roseng\u00e5rd is not standing still. In recent years, various programmes have been launched to make Roseng\u00e5rd safer. They include the programme Sluta skjut \u2013 roughly \u2018Stop shooting\u2019 \u2013 which aims to prevent shootings and serious violence between criminal groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n

The view from outside<\/h2>\n\n \n <\/div>\n\n \n\n\n\n\n

\u2018Roseng\u00e5rd is like a tattoo you wear. It is a label for not being Swedish. Every town in Sweden has a Roseng\u00e5rd. Roseng\u00e5rd is a person: I am Roseng\u00e5rd, you are Roseng\u00e5rd, they are Roseng\u00e5rd. Swedes are very cautious. Where are you from? That is a question you get asked here very often, and it comes with the feeling of being a stranger.\u2019 That is how 24-year-old Abdula explains it to Nora in an interview. He lives in Roseng\u00e5rd himself, works for Save the Children and is the founder of the company Made in Roseng\u00e5rd, which aims to encourage young people to become entrepreneurs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is hard for residents to escape the negative stigma when the outside world mostly knows their home as a \u2018problem neighbourhood\u2019. As soon as people know where you are from, the tattoo can no longer be hidden. Most of Roseng\u00e5rd\u2019s residents also feel let down by politicians. If young people can earn a lot of money through crime, politicians have to offer better opportunities, Abdula believes.  <\/p>\n\n\n \n\n

Living with diversity<\/h2>\n\n \n <\/div>\n\n \n\n\n\n\n

Many of Roseng\u00e5rd\u2019s residents come from predominantly Muslim countries, which is why the neighbourhood is marked by great multicultural and ethnic diversity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Twenty-eight-year-old Halimo is a social worker and lives in Roseng\u00e5rd. She is also a project manager at Roseng\u00e5rd Roasters, an organisation that promotes democratic participation in Roseng\u00e5rd and helps residents stand up for their own rights. The association actively fights discrimination and racism. \u2018Many mothers in particular take up what we offer. The workshops make them more confident and stronger,\u2019 says Halimo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Living together matters a great deal to the people of Roseng\u00e5rd. Especially in the summer months, many people gather to spend time outdoors and celebrate together \u2013 with plenty of food, drink and entertainment for children and young people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n

The Roseng\u00e5rd of the future<\/h2>\n\n \n <\/div>\n\n \n\n\n\n\n

What might the Roseng\u00e5rd of the future look like? The neighbourhood is on the move and changing. But problems persist: young people still do not have the same opportunities as their peers from other areas, and unemployment remains high. These are the problems facing the residents, who are shaping their home into something beautiful through all kinds of commitment. But often that simply does not seem to be enough. Like many people in Roseng\u00e5rd, Halimo and Abdula believe solutions must be found for the district\u2019s problems \u2013 above all at a political level. Halimo ends the interview with an image: \u2018People here knock on a lot of doors and hope that one of them will open for them.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n \n\n
