How is remote work shaping the future of Nordic regions?

During the webinar we explore the latest findings on remote work and multilocality in the Nordic region, with insights from Nordregio’s newly released research on the topic.

The webinar focuses on the long-term impacts of remote work trends on Nordic cities, regions, and rural areas, offering perspectives on how these shifts influence mobility, migration patterns, and the attractiveness of towns and rural areas.

This session also addresses critical questions about the tools and policies Nordic countries are using to support sustainable remote work and how to ensure social, environmental, and financial sustainability in a multilocal world. We also highlight how remote work and especially digital work affect the work environment, and how to create safe, healthy workplaces remotely.

Key takeaways from the webinar:

  • How remote work is influencing mobility and settlement patterns in the Nordics.
  • The policies and tools Nordic countries are using to support sustainable remote work.
  • Case studies from cities, towns, and rural regions that highlight the opportunities and challenges of remote work.
  • How remote work affects the work environment from an occupational safety and health (OSH) perspective.
