State of the Nordic Region 2020 – Wellbeing, health and digitalisation edition
This Special Edition aims to complement State of the Nordic Region 2020 by taking an in-depth look at some of the factors that contribute to wellbeing and health in the Nordic Region, and exploring how digitalisation in health care and social care can contribute to wellbeing. The report illustrates the central role of demography, whereby the composition and the spatial patterns of the population together with socio-economic factors contribute to shaping the living conditions and wellbeing in different parts of the Nordic Region. Despite a general pattern of urban regions being richer, more well educated and living longer, we also find many thriving rural areas attracting new young residents.

Les Inuit connectés
Alors que 99 % des données Internet sont transmises par câbles sous-marins de fibre optique partout dans le monde, le Nunavut, territoire arctique canadien peuplé à majorité d’Inuit, dépend entièrement du satellite pour se connecter au reste du monde. Ce moyen de connexion, dans l’Arctique, est lent, limité en volume de transfert de données et coûte cher. Cette situation résulte de choix faits par le gouvernement fédéral canadien à la suite de la création de Telesat, des choix qui marquent encore aujourd’hui fortement l’accès à Internet dans le Nord canadien, créant un réel fossé numérique entre le Nord et le Sud qui pose question. Dans cet ouvrage, Michael Delau...
