Regional Strategies in English

The regional development in Västerbotten is governed by the goals in the Regional Development Strategy 2020-2030. To further detail the goals and pinpoint necessary activities the regional development strategy is complemented by other strategies, plans and agendas. This page collects those available in English for convenience.

Only a small subset of the strategies are available in English, these together with the other strategies, plans and agendas where Region Västerbotten is the governing body are available at Regionala strategier, planer och agendor.
