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.
