Description: The Work Package focuses on the potential for a more unified and integrated European Union High North policy. In this context, common and diverging interests of the EU and its member states towards the High North will be identified and possibilities for a more unified EU strategy towards the High North determined. As specific fields of policies, the management and exploitation of natural resources, environment and climate change policies, traditional security as well as issues of jurisdiction will be analysed. The Work Package includes three major milestones: - The potential role for EU energy policy of the High North as an energy province, bearing in mind the current preponderance of national interests of individual EU states over common Union position. - EU member states' policy on legal issues in the High North, and the prospects for the establishment of a common EU position. Particular focus will be paid to the fishery protection zone and the continental shelf around Svalbard. - The evolution of EU and individual EU member states' perception of the military security relevance of the High North, and the potential for dialogue between Norway and the EU and individual member states.
