DOWNLOAD EBOOKFor a long time, the Nordic countries have been a region of peace, with the ability to resolve conflicts peacefully among themselves, and a region for peace, actively promoting peace globally. Although efforts to actively brand the Nordic region are ongoing, the Nordic Peace brand is an area with untapped potential. The Nordics have rich traditions for working together on peace and conflict resolution. These joint efforts have grown organically and informally from like-mindedness, letting the common Nordic culture and ways of working foster integration among them where relevant. The people working in the Nordic countries on Nordic cooperation and peace recognize the potential of strengthening the Nordic Peace brand. One area of special potential is increasing focus on the shared Nordic priorities of prevention and the women, peace and security agenda as part of the Nordic Peace brand.

The Nordic Council of Ministers was tasked with steering Nordic co-operation towards delivering this vision. The Nordic Council of Ministers is following a special action plan in its efforts relating to the vision for the period 2021 to 2024. Now, after almost two years, a mid-point evaluation has been produced. Despite the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russian war of aggression against Ukraine during the period, the Nordic Council of Ministers has delivered concrete results and made an impact. The activities of the Nordic Council of Ministers are being steered towards supporting the Nordic countries as well as possible in their realisation of the vision. Efforts relating to the green transition have been bolstered by way of DKK 120 million in additional funding thanks to a budget redistribution in the period 2021 to 2024. The mid-point evaluation was approved by the Ministers for Nordic Co-operation in September 2022.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Nordic Region 2030: The five Nordic countries have formed a federal political entity - the United Nordic Federation. The new federation, with its joint constitution, joint government and population of 25 million, is a brand-new and major player on the European stage - well it would be if the countries have the courage to make it happen. The controversial historian Gunnar Wetterberg provides objective and detailed arguments for a new Nordic federation. A real federation, with responsibility for foreign and defence policy, the economic framework and all of the key legislative areas, from immigration to social policy. Last year, Wetterberg breathed new life into the debate about the rebirth of the Kalmar Union. The emotional, hard-hitting debate resonated all the way to Germany, Spain and Italy. He now presents his vision of the United Nordic Federation in theNordic Council and Nordic Council of Ministers' Yearbook 2010. His highly controversial proposal is expected to reignite the debate in all five of the Nordic countries.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAvailable online: https://pub.norden.org/politiknord2022-709/ The co-operation programme fleshes out the Nordic Council of Ministers’ action plan for Vision 2030 and its 12 goals and describes what Nordic co-operation on working life will seek to achieve by 2024. The Nordic Council of Ministers is committed to labour markets that match the requirements of the green transition and progress toward digitalisation and that support freedom of movement in the Nordic Region. The Nordic models for working life are based to a large extent on gender equality, social security and dialogue between the social partners. However, the Nordic labour markets also face significant changes as a result of, for example, new technology and the digitalisation of workplaces, demographic trends and new forms of employment. The co-operation programme identifies the challenges faced and looks at how best Nordic co-operation can help address them.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKTogether we are stronger is the title agreed by the Ministers for Nordic Co-operation in February 2014 for the vision for Nordic co-operation. That summer, the vision was then set in stone by way of the decision to modernise the work of the Council of Ministers. The primary aim of this modernisation is to strengthen dynamic and relevant co-operation between member countries so that the outcomes achieved when working together truly surpass what the countries can achieve on their own. The purpose of this annual report is to highlight some examples of these outcomes, categorised into the four main areas of the vision: freedom of movement, innovation, visibility, and international engagement.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Nordic region is attractive. For a long time, the Nordic region has been attracting international recognition, thanks to unique achievements in cuisine, design, films, music and literature. We find success stories like these in all the Nordic countries, and many of them have a common Nordic format – a Nordic trademark. However, the Nordic region first started to distinguish itself on the international stage in the aftermath of the financial crisis. It showed that the Nordic welfare and political model was once again capable of renewing itself. Countries around the world then began to discuss whether our model could serve as a possible buffering and stabilizing factor in an increasingly uncertain global economy. We in the Nordic region are also facing a number of serious challenges. We are far from perfect, but it is perhaps this imperfection that makes us fascinating.
