Working groups in the environmental and climate sector

The themes are:

The groups’ main task is to ensure that the Programme for Nordic Co-operation on the Environment and Climate 2019–2024 is implemented. This entails running projects and conferences, conducting analyses, producing reports, organising workshops, etc. and responding to requests from ministers.
