The Session is the supreme decision-making body within Nordic parliamentary co-operation. It is a unique form of regional co-operation, bringing together both parliamentarians of the Nordic Council and Nordic government ministers.

The main theme for this year’s Session is “Peace and security in the Arctic”. A potential update of the Helsinki Treaty is also on the agenda. The detailed agenda for the plenary will be published two weeks before the Session.
