Nordic, Baltic and Caucasus Conversation

Nordic, Baltic and Caucasus Conversation

Nordic, Baltic and Caucasus Conversation 2022 is a five-day international event that will include an intensive program of high-level discussions about the achievement of the UN SDGs in societies with growing youth unemployment, and ever deeper economic, social and racial divisions. The conference will connect regional networks of practitioners, policy-makers, civil society organizations.

The aim of the event is to study the implementation of the UN 75 declaration and to promote new international cooperation between the Nordic, Baltic and Caucasian countries to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, human and digital rights, as well as intercultural dialogue.
As one of the main outcomes of the Conversation – the Intercultural Citizenship Network – is devoted entirely to that purpose through human rights education, culture, advocacy, civil participation, and continued networking.
