This strategy has now been extended to 2024, with minor updates. The strategy lays down the vision for the Nordic Council of Ministers’ efforts relating to children and young people: that the Nordic Region must be the best place in the world for children and young people.The objective of efforts relating to children and young people in the Nordic Region is to establish good living conditions and improve their opportunity for influence. The right to good living conditions and influence must be promoted equally for all children and young people regardless of their gender, ethnic, cultural or socioeconomic background, age, place of origin, sexual orientation, or disability.

The indicators show how far the region has come but also illustrate challenges that remain to be addressed in terms of demography, family and care, health, education, the labour market and income, as well as leisure and culture. This data will hopefully be useful for anyone seeking reliable and comparable data on children and young people in the Nordics.

Children and young people are therefore priority target groups for the Nordic Council of Ministers, so the Council will integrate a children’s rights and youth perspective in its work. The ambition for greater integration of a children’s rights and youth perspective also brings a responsibility to ensure that the work is based on a number of guiding principles. There must be a common minimum level of the involvement of children and young people and, above all, the work must be carried out in a way that protects and promotes children’s safety and security. This document is relevant for all situations in which children and young people are contacted or involved in the work of the Nordic Council of Ministers.

This is the vision of the Nordic Council of Ministers’ strategy for children and young people in the Nordic Region. This publication aims to inspire administrative bodies, organisations, individuals and others to recognise their opportunities and responsibilities. Participation in society and having influence over one’s own life is not only a right for boys and girls, young women and men, but it also leads to better decision-making, more engaged citizens and a more inclusive society.
This collection provides a comprehensive insight into disabled children and youth in Nordic countries.

This TEMA-Nord report is a result of a one-year project with all of the Nordic countries participating. The primary goal of the project has been to collect, develop and mediate a series of good examples of how nature interpretation, aimed at children and young people, can encourage children's understanding of nature, and inspire them to involve themselves with questions on humans nature and thus help contribute to sustainable development. Several issues should be considered when planning nature interpretation activities if nature interpretation aims to lead to sustainable development. These points of view are concerned especially with how nature interpreters can encourage children and young people to take ownership, to be involved with their body and mind, and to reflect and put the experience and the activities in nature into a wider context.

A new mapping provides insight into a number of risk factors, which include excessive use of digital media, loneliness and various social conditions. Protective factors include good relationships in school and physical activity. The paper contributes to an overview of the Nordic countries’ organisation of efforts aimed at children and young people in mental distress, including a description of the cross-sectoral collaboration between the healthcare and social services sectors in each of the Nordic countries. The division of responsibilities between the healthcare and social services sectors differs among the Nordic countries. The Nordic countries are divided into regions and municipalities which are responsible in different ways for young people in mental distress. As the division of responsibilities differs between the countries, the cross-sectoral collaboration within them does as well.
