The European Studies Center at the University of Pittsburgh’s Conversations on Europe series of moderated virtual roundtables connects top experts from North Africa and Europe to discuss contemporary issues facing Europe and the Transatlantic relationship. As part of the Year of Creating Europe, previous sessions have focused on different attempts to create unity through diversity across Europe. In this session, the focus is on Scandinavia.

In its efforts to make a nation that is diverse but coalesces, how has Scandinavia been able to create trust in its institutions?
