The research wants to investigate questions such as:

• How are Norrland and the green investments represented in national media and politics?
• What is perceived as Norrland's challenges/problems/advantages?
• What assumptions form the basis for place marketing strategies and other initiatives implemented to make Norrland more attractive?
• How do local actors view the future of their local area and of Norrland as a whole?
