How sustainable is the Nordic region?
The Nordic Prime Ministers' vision is that the Nordic region must be the most sustainable and integrated region in the world by 2030 and for many actors in the Nordic region the SDG’s are the starting point for their work to create a more sustainable society. But how far have we really come in achieving the SDG’s – what are the Nordic countries doing, where are we on target and where do we need to strengthen our efforts towards 2030? This segment will end with a quick lunch before continuing the program.

Panellists and speakers:

  • Åsa Hildestrand, Senior Project Manager Agenda 2030, Nordregio
  • Kim Gabrielli, CEO, UN Global Compact Norway
  • Katherine Richardson, Professor, University of Copenhagen
  • Per Mickwitz. Pro Vice-Chancellor, Lund University

Moderator:

  • Claus Kragh, editor, Ugebrevet Mandag Morgen

12:20-13:10
How can we ensure a just transition in the Nordics?
With the transition to a more sustainable society, we see various consequences for our economies, in which climate and biodiversity policies might cause jobs to disappear or challenge the traditional livelihood of local communities. This can result in resistance and vulnerability among certain groups and might lead to protests and political opposition to the transition. The question is how we can ensure a more sustainable society and make sure that vulnerable groups are not adversely affected by the transition, and that political support is maintained. We end the segment with a quick refueling with tea or coffee.

Panellists and speakers:

  • Nora Sanchez Gassen, Senior Research Fellow, Nordregio
  • Selma de Montgomery, Fridays For Future
  • Mads Flarup Christensen, General Secretary, Greenpeace Norden
  • José Pérez Johansson, Policy Officer, Council of Nordic Trade Unions
  • Birgitte Diget, Global Aktion

13:15-14:00
How do we achieve sustainable consumption in the Nordics?
One of the big challenges in the Nordic region if we are to achieve the SDG’s by 2030 is our consumption. Compared to other regions in the world, we emit large amounts of greenhouse gases and other pollutants through our purchase and use of goods. We take stock of what our consumption means for climate and biodiversity, how we can measure it and look to solutions on making sustainability the easy choice for consumers.

Panellists and speakers:
