Description

"The Nordic Council of Ministries consists of ministerial members from Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, the Faroe Islands, Greenland and Åland. Although only covering part of the Baltic Sea Region member states, the council has vast experiences of macro-regional cooperation and are active in the implementation of the EUSBSR Action plan. They coordinate the activities related to bioeconomy within the EUSBSR Horizontal Action Sustainable Development and Bio-Economy, which provides the ground for cooperation in the fields of climate adaptation and bio-economy. Within the Nordic Council of Ministers Centre of Excellence initiative, the Nordic Council of Ministries funds the project Nordstar that is developing a white paper on climate adaptation for the Nordic countries, which has the potential to be extended to cover the whole BSR.
