The Nordic Council of Ministers and You
Available online: https://pub.norden.org/nord2021-020/ The Nordic Council of Ministers is the world’s oldest community of its kind. In the Council, the Nordic countries co-operate in all kinds of areas from the climate and the environment to education, workplaces, and children and young people. The Nordic region contains three areas, five countries and 27 million people. When we work together in the region, we are stronger and can make a difference for the whole world. In this folder you can read more about the Nordic Council of Ministers.
Nordic Council of Ministers policy for mainstreaming sustainable development, gender equality, and a child rights and youth perspective
Available online: https://pub.norden.org/politiknord2020-719/ Sustainable development, gender equality, and a child rights and youth perspective are overarching areas that are important for all the work done by the Nordic Council of Ministers. The responsibility for considering these applies to everyone who is working in or on behalf of the Nordic Council of Ministers, regardless of policy area. By strengthening this work, we are ensuring that the work of the Nordic Council of Ministers is sustainable, gender-equal, inclusive, representative, and accessible.

Platform work in the Nordic models: Issues, cases and responses
Online publication: https://pub.norden.org/temanord2020-513/ Abstract [en] This report explores how the platform economy is evolving in the Nordic countries and how its evolution is influenced by the Nordic labour market models and vice-versa. Here, we include all the Nordic countries (Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden), except Iceland, where platform work is still very marginal. While remaining a marginal phenomenon in the Nordic countries, platform work can be seen as one important case in which many key aspects of the changing world of work coalesce. This report on platform work in the Nordic countries thus connects some of the themes explored in the other pillars of the NFoW project, such as digitalization, new forms of employment and the legal and regulatory challenges currently faced by the social partners, governments and Nordic labour market models.
When involving children and young people in the work ofthe Nordic Council of Ministers: Principles and approaches
Available online: https://pub.norden.org/nord2020-015/ Abstract [en] The well-being of children and young people, and their ability to exercise their rights, is a pre-requisite for the continued development of the Nordic region. Children and young people are therefore priority target groups for the Nordic Council of Ministers, so the Council will integrate a children’s rights and youth perspective in its work. The ambition for greater integration of a children’s rights and youth perspective also brings a responsibility to ensure that the work is based on a number of guiding principles. There must be a common minimum level of the involvement of children and young people and, above all, the work must be carried out in a way that protects and promotes children’s safety and security. This document is relevant for all situations in which children and young people are contacted or involved in the work of the Nordic Council of Ministers.
Rules of Procedure for the Nordic Council
The Nordic Council was formed in 1952 to coordinate cooperation between the parliaments and governments of Denmark, Iceland, Norway and Sweden. Finland joined in 1955. When the Nordic Council of Ministers was formed in 1971, the Nordic Council was transformed into a purely interparliamentary body. The Council consists of 87 MPs elected by the national parliaments. The delegations from the Faroe Islands and Greenland form part of the Danish delegation. The delegation from Åland forms part of the Finnish delegation. The Council launches initiatives of its own, acts in an advisory capacity, acts in a supervisory capacity and plays a proactive role in official Nordic co-operation. The Nordic Council bodies consist of the Plenary, Presidium and committees.
Co-operation Programme 2021–2024 for the Nordic Council of Ministers for Fisheries, Aquaculture, Agriculture, Food and Forestry
Available online: https://pub.norden.org/politiknord2021-704/ This co-operation programme describes the most important priorities for the Council of Ministers for Fisheries, Aquaculture, Agriculture, Food, and Forestry in the period 2021-2024. The programme focuses on sustainable bioeconomy and value creation, sustainable and health-promoting food supply systems in the Nordic region, and associated initiatives, all of which support the vision for the Nordic region to be the world’s most sustainable and integrated region by 2030. At the same time, the Nordic co-operation contributes to the resolution of many of the most important global challenges that the world’s countries have agreed to prioritise through the UN’s 17 Global Sustainability Goals.
New Nordic Peace: Nordic Peace and Conflict Resolution Efforts
For 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.

Nordic Co-operation Programme on Energy Policy 2022–2024
Available online: https://pub.norden.org/politiknord2021-731/ The Nordic energy ministers present a new Nordic energy policy co-operation programme for the period 2022–2024. The Nordic Region wants to be the most sustainable and integrated region in the world by 2030, and that is also the overall vision for co-operation on energy. A green transition of the Nordic societies will not be possible without a substantial green energy transition. As the Nordic energy systems are closely linked, working together on joint initiatives will lead to a green transition that is more cost-effective and socially sustainable than if the countries were each to achieve the goals individually. In 2020, the No...
