Summary: | An important goal of Nordic co-operation is the social inclusion of people with disabilities. This co-operation is based on the values of democracy, rule of law, and equality, which are shared by all the Nordic countries, as well as the Faroe Islands, Greenland, and Åland. Equal opportunities and security regardless of a citizen’s gender, ethnicity, religion, belief, functional capacity, age, or sexual orientation are cornerstones of the Nordic welfare societies. This also includes social rights and the principle that everyone should have equal access to healthcare and social services, education, and culture. |
