About Norrbotten in Almedalen 2023

The Regional Development Committee decided on February 1, 2023, that the Norrbotten Region will participate in Almedalen in the summer of 2022. The initiative is financed with a maximum of SEK 1,5 million within the framework of the existing project Meeting Places for Regional Competitiveness.

New for this year is that Region Norrbotten will cover accommodation costs during Almedalen 2023 for municipal representatives (2 from each municipality). The purpose is to provide an opportunity for all the county's municipalities to create relationships on site and tell other decision-makers about their municipality's unique perspective and development opportunities.

Norrbotten in Almedalen 2023 aims to:

  • Region Norrbotten brings together the county's stakeholders in a joint advocacy effort and influences national decision-making processes that are crucial for the county's development.
  • Focus on the opportunities and challenges that the large investments have on society in Norrbotten.
  • Make Norrbotten's strengths and resources visible. Show that Norrbotten contributes to development nationally and internationally.
  • The meeting places will be an opportunity for participants to exchange knowledge and experiences with each other and create networks that contribute to the county's development.
  • Help more people become good and proud ambassadors for Norrbotten.

The project will result in the following:

  • That the region's stakeholders together achieve a consensus on important advocacy issues that lead to joint action.
  • That knowledge about Norrbotten's strengths and resources as well as the county's specific conditions is disseminated to selected target groups.
  • That networks are created where people strengthen each other and become good and proud ambassadors for Norrbotten.
  • Region Norrbotten continues its advocacy work in the national arena.
  • Enables other actors to have arenas for their advocacy work.
