The Barents Regional Committee

The Barents Regional Committee is a forum where civil servants from the member counties and a representative of the indigenous people convene.

The Committee prepares the meetings of the Regional Council and implements the decisions taken by the Regional Council. The Chairship of the Regional Committee is held by the same county as that of the Regional Council, and consequently alternates every second year.

Nordland County, Norway, holds the chairship for 2025.

The Regional Committee meets regularly to discuss multilateral matters, such as cooperation projects, applications, ongoing activities and new initiatives.

For agendas and protocols of the Regional Committee please contact IBS.
