Agenda Inlandet 2021

12 August will be the Agenda Innlandet conference 2021 - in the entire county!

Together with Agenda Innlandet, we have the pleasure of inviting you to Agenda Innlandet conference 2021.

Agenda Innlandet is the most important meeting place for business, politicians and the knowledge environments in Innlandet. On 12 August, lunch meetings will be held in eight different locations in the Inland, where there will be a joint digital conference and a regional panel discussion on the Inland.

In just over two hours, we set the pulse on the Inland. You will hear about the ambitions for the Inland from both Erna, Jonas and Trygve, the rectors of HINN and NTNU Gjøvik, KS Innlandet and representatives of some of the industries of the future in the Inland. And we engage both the panel and the meeting participants in a joint, regional conversation about the Inland, our opportunities and solutions to the challenges.

Lunch meetings are arranged in Kongsvinger, Elverum, Hamar, Tynset, Gjøvik, Valdres, Lillehammer or Otta. You can also follow the conference digitally with some of the regional panel discussions. All meeting places will of course follow the rules for infection control and there is a limited number of places.

See the website of Agenda Innlandet for more information and registration.

"Interacting in the region is more important than municipal boundaries"

The claim comes from one of 15 working groups in a joint meeting of the municipal councils in the Kongsvinger region on 27 May. The municipal councils in the Kongsvinger region had a joint meeting on 27 May. Around 150 municipal board members attended the digital meeting. The meeting was filmed, and you can see the whole meeting here.

 

Victor Norman, Professor Emeritus NHH, opened with the Demography Committee's report (NOU 205: 15 - It's about Norway - Study on the consequences of demographic challenges in the districts)

Norman pointed out, among other things:

Emigration from the districts has stopped because there are so few young people left who can move. This applies to the whole of Norway, but with a reinforcement in the Kongsvinger region.

There are not enough young people left for the districts to be able to reproduce themselves.

Population in itself is not an interesting quantity. The goal must be good societies, societies that are good to live in and financially sustainable; Demographic sustainability.

The reality in the district municipalities has become different.

Bolyst - you have to cultivate the format you have. We cant

A particularly exciting post, where Norman also discussed views with the participants. You can see the post with the following discussion here.

 

 

"Young involvement" is a project, financed by Innlandet county council, the State Administrator in Innlandet, NAV Innlandet and the municipalities in the Kongsvinger region. Kongsvinger municipality is the owner of this 3-year project. The project focuses on young people who are outside the workforce.

The project is in the start-up phase, and was presented by Lars Andreas Uglem (councilor Kongsvinger), Mai-Britt Aasen (leader of NAV Kongsvinger) and Hilde Opberget (project leader).
