Description
Summary:This literature review provides an overview of some key aspects of the green transition, as well as providing examples of a number of green initiatives seen across Nordic regions. Besides policy and decision makers at a governmental level, private enterprises also play a critical role in greening the economy in Nordic and Arctic regions. Sustainable competitiveness requires the preservation of biodiversity and a natural regeneration capacity. The green economy is likely to consist of a mixture of new objectives and new ways of doing things, all of which could require a mix of specifically green skills and more traditional skills. Working in symbiosis or with a systems-thinking approach will be key to build and sustain resilient Nordic and Arctic regions.
