Inbjudan

Nordiska rådets temamöte 2004

Helsingfors, 14 – 15 april, 2004

Bäste ,

Jag har härmed det stora nöjet att bjuda dig in till Nordiska rådets temamöte 2004. Mötet äger rum i Holiday Inn Helsinki Congress Center den 14 – 15 april.

Syftet med mötet är att diskutera det praktiska genomförandet av den Nordliga dimensionen och vad man från parlamentariskt håll kan göra för att främja detta. Frågeställningen skall belysas utifrån olika sakområden, och särskild tyngd skall läggas på samarbetet med Nordvästra Ryssland. Till mötet inbjuds parlamentariker från Östersjöregionen, Europaparlamentet och andra parlamentariska organisationer, ministrar, samt tjänstemän, och experter från regeringar, myndigheter och internationella organisationer. En grundläggande utgångspunkt för mötet är EU:s Second Northern Dimension Action Plan (NDAP II), som antogs hösten 2003 och nu håller på att genomföras.

Temamötet omfattar två block med tre parallella sessioner vardera:

Onsdag 14 april Session 1: A knowledge-based Region

Session 2: The Conditions for Economic Development

Session 3: The Northern Dimension Partnership in Public Health and Social Wellbeing

Torsdag 15 april Session 4: Industrial Development in the Baltic Sea Region
