- Aerpiemaahtoe (traditional knowledge) about Sámi food culture, such as plants, fish, animals, seasons and sustainable use of natural resources, as well as exploring interest in small-scale food development and production.
- Potential development of railway connectivity between Storuman in Västerbotten and Mo i Rana in Helgeland.
- Tourism access to Arctic research and science-related environments.
