Troms Arctic Archipelago in Norway (NUT2 Nord-Norge, code NO07) Demonstrations in Troms

Why this Demo?

The Arctic Archipelago of Karlsøy has around 600 islands with a rich sea, diverse coastal culture and 11 protected areas. It hosts Europe’s largest kelp forests, which provide habitat for a variety of small animals and fish species, as well as impressive seabird colonies, abundant fish and mammals.

Demonstrations in Norway will:

  • Large scale ecosystem restoration of kelp forest ecosystems through a collaboration between science, business, local authorities and citizens.
  • Develop ecotourism & sustainable tourism destination, largely driven by the intention to protect ecosystems and contribute to Nature-based Solutions in and outside marine protected areas.
  • Application of Ecosystem-based Management to protect and restore biological diversity and enhance resilience to climate change.
