"Nordic and Baltic Economies: Problems and Prospects" Seminar

On behalf of Mary Hilson apologies for any cross-posting.

 

The UCL Nordic/Baltic Research Group is pleased to announce a forthcoming seminar on "Nordic and Baltic Economies: Problems and Prospects", to take place at UCL on 29th April 2010.  The seminar is the second in the ESRC-funded series "The Nordic and Baltic States in the European Political Imagination".

 

In the current global economic turmoil, some of the Nordic and Baltic economies – such as Latvia and Iceland – have suffered badly while others – Norway, in particular – have survived the downturn relatively well. Over the last few years, the economic performance of Europe’s regions has grown in importance to practitioners and academics alike. The speakers at the seminar will be discussing issues related to economic development and future growth potential in the region ranging from financial recovery and tax reforms to labour market policies and innovation.

 

For further information including the full programme please follow this

link: http://www.ucl.ac.uk/silva/nordicbaltic/NBEconomies.  There will be a charge of £10, payable on the day.  To register please contact Allan Sikk (a.sikk@ssees.ucl.ac.uk).

 

All welcome!

 

Mary Hilson (on behalf of the Nordic/Baltic Research Group)

Dear Scandinavian Specialist Group Member,

 

Please find attached the documents, links and instructions for the AGM taking place this Friday 16 April 2010, 11am Swedish time.

 

Practicalities first, on Friday  you need to log onto in order to join the meeting:
https://connect.sunet.se/psaspsg/
If you have never attended a Connect Pro meeting before:
Test your connection: https://connect.sunet.se/common/help/en/support/meeting_test.htm
Get a quick overview: http://www.adobe.com/go/connectpro_overview

 

Please find test your connection prior to the meeting as sometime one has to install plug-ins for the programme to work correctly.

 

This is a programme which enables us to talk to each other using web cameras (do not worry if you do not have one we can still hear you and talk with you). It would be good if you have earphones/headset and do not use the speakers on the computer as the microphone will pick this sound up and we will hear an echo.

 

The documents attached are an agenda for the meeting and a copy of the report for 2009 (based on the form which is to be returned to the PSA).

A link is provided to an amended draft for a constitution for the Specialist Group which will be discussed and adopted at the AGM https://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AfIcIEu7mjItZGR4MnIyOGZfMzYxc3J6cDU1Zno&hl=en_GB

 

We are very much looking forward to seeing in virtually on Friday,

Malin, Lee & Nick
