This report brings together practical examples and shared insights from across the Nordic region from projects and activities conducted by Nordregio, the Nordic Cross-border Committees and the Nordic Atlantic Cooperation (NORA) as part of the Nordic Cooperation Programme For Regional Development And Planning 2021–2024 (RCP). It highlights how cooperation and mutual learning can help address common challenges in the region—from demographic shifts to the green transition.

What can Nordic municipalities and communities learn from contemporaries across the region? How can potentially transformational policies, strategies and initiatives be successfully transferred from one local context to another? Such are the questions underlying this report.
