🌍 Welcome to the official LinkedIn page of the Northern Sparsely Populated Areas (NSPA) Network!
We are excited to launch this platform, where we will share insights, updates, and knowledge from the 14 regions in the European Arctic that make up the NSPA.
Spanning northern Sweden, eastern and northern Finland, and northern Norway, the NSPA regions are unique in their opportunities and challenges. Together, we represent a sparsely populated yet resource-rich and innovative part of the European Arctic.
What is the NSPA?
The NSPA Network is a collaboration between the four northernmost regions of Sweden, the seven northernmost and eastern regions of Finland, and the three counties in northern Norway. Together, we represent a vast area with only 4.9 inhabitants per km², facing challenges such as a harsh climate, long distances, and demographic shifts. Yet, this region also holds immense opportunities in areas like renewable energy, sustainability, and Arctic development.
What is our goal?
We aim to raise awareness of the NSPA in EU institutions, influence EU policy, and provide a platform for sharing best practices.
