HELSINKI: Towards sustainable living in the Nordic Region

A big part of the green transformation takes place in the private homes. New data shows that the Nordic Region still has a way to go, when it comes to sustainable private consumption. This event will take a deep dive into the possibilities and challenges of a green transition of the Nordic lifestyle. We will discuss how we can help Nordic citizens make smart, green choices.

Joining the event are steering group members of the cross-Nordic programme “Sustainable Lifestyles in the Nordic Region” who will share their ambitions and insights.
