The Northern Sparsely Populated Areas (NSPA), together with Scotland Europe, organised a joint event on the European Week of Regions and Cities. The event, “Building smart, resilient communities: adapting sparsely populated areas to a digital & green future”, took place in Brussels on 8th October and sought to gain understanding on how the digital and green transition could be further fostered in the sparsely populated areas of Finland, Norway, Sweden and Scotland, and what kind of challenges will need to be tackled to achieve this.
