The Nordic Council of Ministers is represented at several political arenas over the summer and in the autumn, where democracy is on the agenda.
Political festivals are a place where ideas are discussed and the aim is to strengthen the link between the political system and citizens, by creating spaces for dialogue and participation.
At the summer festivals in the Nordics in June and August, you can meet stakeholders from the Nordic collaboration on topics such as the future of the Nordics, preparedness, democracy, innovation, Nordic culture and more.
In August and september, the Nordic Council of Ministers is also represented via our local offices and institutions across the Nordic region in the Baltic countries and in October, stakeholders within the Arctic region meet at Arctic Circle in Iceland,
In 2018, organisers of democracy festivals from Northern Europe joined forces and established the Democracy Festivals Association
