The White Paper on Nordic Sustainable Cities develops a narrative to describe the “Nordic Sustainable City”. It forms a basis for the knowledge sharing effort that will be carried out by Nordic Innovation, Nordregio's sister institution under the Nordic Council of Ministers in 2018. This work aims to export Nordic stories as a means of branding the Nordic Region and contributing to global efforts towards urban sustainability.
Nordregio is currently looking for examples that will help us illustrate the story of the Nordic Sustainable City from a practical perspective. Do you know of an initiative that contributes to sustainability in your Nordic city? Something that makes it greener, smarter, more inclusive? That promotes mobility, resilience, health? A great example of Nordic design or of the circular economy? We are interested in all types of examples, from cities of all shapes and sizes! Those selected by the jury will be showcased in a publication developed by Nordregio and Nordic Innovation, in partnership with the Danish Architecture Centre.
