Reindeer hunting as world heritage A ten thousand year-long tradition

Financing progressing well After the meeting of the contact forum in December 2005, applications were sent to County Governors, county authorities, municipalities and the local mountain management boards in the area, requesting financial support for the project. Most of the municipalities have now considered the application and so far we have not received a single rejection. This shows that the project has generated interest and attention in the local communities. The project is completely dependent on such financial support to ensure its progress. Funds are needed to purchase the services of the experts in the expert team, to finance the day-to-day running of the project and for the production of information material, not least. We will also utilise resources on information work both at the national level and not least in the local communities in the 12 municipalities involved. We are now eagerly awaiting the outcome of the County Governors and county authorities’ consideration of the application.
