Discussion papers

The Nordic thematic group for innovative and resilient regions has published three discussion papers on digitalisation, smart specialisation and economic and social resilience. The purpose of the papers is to introduce in-depth studies already after the completion of the knowledge overview part of the research process and to engage Nordic stakeholders with the three studies at an earlier stage. Find the discussion papers here:

• Digitalisation as a tool for sustainable Nordic regional development: Preliminary literature and policy review
• The potential of Smart Specialisation for enhancing innovation and resilience in Nordic regions: Preliminary literature and policy review
• Regional Economic and Social Resilience: Conceptual Debate and Implications for Nordic Regions

Nordregio welcomes constructive feedback on the paper and hopes that this open process will ultimately contribute to a better result.

The final report on the three Nordic in-depth studies will be available in late 2018 at www.nordregio.org
