We will share knowledge, experiences and establish networks to strengthen cooperation across the borders. We will collect the voices of Sami children and young people and, in the long term, contribute to them being able to participate more in their own lives. The project will give us an overview of future topics opportunities for collaboration.<< Implementation >>The project starts with a kick-off meeting in Tromsø, followed by capacity building workshops in Sweden and Norway and transfer of knowledge through digital meetings. The focus is rights work for Sami children and young people within various topics that are relevant and affect them. Network building with relevant actors starts at the Sami Arena in Kautokeino in Norway and continues at the Jokkmokkmarknaden in Sweden.
