Pressmeddelande -
Celebrate the official Nordic Day with us and get more information about the Nordic Region!
The Nordic Day is celebrated on 23rd of March every year because of the Treaty of Co-operation between Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden (the Helsinki Treaty). This Treaty was signed on 23 March 1962 and entered into force on 1 July 1962.
On Wednesday, we celebrate the Nordic Day in all the Nordic capitals with launching State of the Nordic Region 22 and several events.
In Stockholm we will talk about:
Closed borders and cross-border labour – How do they co-exist?
WHEN
23 March at 10–11:00 (CET)
Breakfast will be served from 09:30
WHERE
Foajé 3, Kulturhuset, Stockholm – entrance from Sergels torg
WHY
458,000 citizens – 1.7% of the Nordic population – live in a different Nordic country to the one in which they were born. This event will look at how the pandemic affected them in terms of cross-border working and mobility – and how Nordic collaboration can be improved. This is a key topic in the 2022 edition of Nordregio’s State of the Nordic Region Report.
PANELISTS:
Anna Hallberg (S), Minister for Nordic Cooperation
Anna Lundgren, Senior Research Fellow, Nordregio
Magnus Ek (C), Member of Parliament, Chair of the Nordic Council Sustainability Committee

Vi uppmärksammar aktuella nordiska frågor inom tex. politik, näringsliv, miljö, samhälle och kultur. Vi vänder oss i första hand till tjänstemän, politiker, journalister och intresseorganisationer
