GREETING FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF FINLAND
I would like to bid all of the participants welcome to the first fully fledged Barents Summer
Games to be held in Finland and Oulu. Young athletes from the Barents Region have
gathered to participate in a total of fifteen sporting events, from team games to individual
disciplines.
This event also demonstrates the power of the Barents Region. Nowadays, over six million
people live in the northern reaches of Finland, Norway, Russia and Sweden. The Games
are filling the Oulu region with their vibrant colours. In addition to providing an excellent
background for sporting endeavours, the event aids the development of culture, sport and
other cooperation in the northern region.
Besides the athletes, high numbers of voluntary workers have paved the way for the
success of these Games. The Games have been made possible by the efforts of
organisers from Kalottiurheilu and around 350 volunteers.
As well as succeeding, a spirit of fair play and the joy of a successful performance are
important in sport. I wish all of the athletes, coaches, volunteers and the audience an
excellent and unforgettable time at Barents Summer Games.
Sauli Niinistö
President of the Republic of Finland
the way is opened
towards better
and better Games
BSG Oulu 2015 were the first official Barents Summer
Games and the largest event in the 65 years history of
Barents Sports. The event was a massive effort for organizers, but the Games were a great success. We want
to thank all the athletes, all sports that organized the
competitions, all volunteers, the city of Oulu and all our
other partners!
Barents Sport Committee began to strive towards a
new concept, common Barents Games year 2012. Luleå
2013, Tromso BWG 2014 and now Oulu BSG 2015 showed that selected path has been right.
Now the way is opened towards better and better Games
that inspire Barents youth to participate more and more
in sport cooperation across the borders.
We wish good luck to following organizers of Barents Games!

Barents sports
We are the largest people-to-people
cooperation in Barents and a vibrant
carrier of culture in the region. Sport
is a model in this work. The ice has
melted long ago and the east-west
passage is open. History shows that
the sport cooperation has been steady
regardless of changes in climate.
Claes Gregart // International Coordinator
The Norwegian Barents Secretariat
Barents Games is one of the most important arenas for people-to-people cooperation in the Barents region. The Norwegian Barents Secretariat is
very glad to be a part of it and we are proud that our
grants for sports cooperation every year ensure to
bring more than 8 000 people together – to share
the happiness of sport.
Sharing the Arctic Spirit with over thousand athletes in Oulu this weekend has been inspiring for us
all, and it has shown the strong ties across borders
in the north of Europe.
Thank you for showing us the importance of the
Barents Sports Cooperation. What you have accomplished here in Oulu serve as an exemplary
model for other activities in the Barents Region.
Many thanks to the Barents Sports Committee and
to Oulu Kalottidrott as a host for Barents Games
2015. I am already looking forward to Barents Winter Games in Murmansk 2016.
Best, Kim Stenersen
The Norwegian Barents Secretariat
Sports brings people together.
Bringing people together is cooperation.
Cooperation is communication.

SHARING THE ARCTIC SPIRIT
Welcome to the Barents family
With projects within most areas of activity in the
north, the portfolio of the Norwegian Barents Secretariat is impressive. The region was established as
a peace project, and with strong memories of the atmosphere during the Barents Games in Oulu you have
all seen that this goal is accomplished.
BUSINESS AS USUAL
While political relations between Russia and Western
Europe are on the freezing level, athletes from Russian, Finland, Sweden and Norway have gathered in
Oulu for the biggest Barents Games ever. This is the
key to the success of the Barents cooperation. When
it comes to people-to-people cooperation in the Barents Region it has been business as usual also in the
last two years, and we hope it will stay that way no
matter what happens on future ministerial meetings.
For the Norwegian Barents Secretariat the aim is to
develop good relations across borders in all areas of
society. We do this by promoting and funding cooperation projects. Those who are part of projects like
the Barents Games are given the opportunity to meet
people from other parts of the region and gain knowledge about their lives. Maybe these “other people”
across the border aren´t that different anyway?
One thing is at least the same all over. We all love
sports. Out of the around 200 cooperation projects
we support every year, sports projects are the most
frequent activity in our support list.
An equally important part of the Secretariat’s job is
to act as a centre of competence on cross border relations. We guide all our project owners both in establishing contact with their partners and help them to
develop good projects.
BARENTSOBSERVER.COM
You can find all the information you need about the
activities of the Barents Secretariat on our website
Barents.no. There you will find both our project catalogue and information about other projects and activities where we participate. Like in the promotion of
Indigenous Peoples activities in the Barents Region or
better communication across borders in all of Eastern
Europe in the European Border Dialogues project.
A vital part of cooperation is knowledge, and knowledge comes through better information. That is why
the Norwegian Barents Secretariat run their own
news web site called BarentsObserver.com.
BarentsObserver.com is an open internet news service, which offers daily updated news from and about
the Barents Region and the Arctic. The site presents
news stories from the northern parts of all the four
countries in the region: Russia, Norway, Sweden and
Finland. We publish all news stories in English and
Russian and in our archive you will find more than 15
000 news articles. A number which just keeps growing. When it comes to covering news from the entire
Barents region there is probably now media that can
match our product. So please use BarentsObserver.
com if you need to know more about what is happening on the other side of your border.

Did you know that 36 000 people participated in a Barents project last year?
You are now a part that family, and the Barents Games with more than 1200 athletes is one of the biggest
projects we have supported this year.
