SE-405 30 Göteborg Copyright © 2004 Nordicom NORDICOM’S overriding goal and purpose is to make the media and communication research undertaken in the Nordic countries – Denmark, NORDICOM Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden – known, both throughout and far NORDIC INFORMATION CENTRE FOR beyond our part of the world. Toward this end we use a variety of MEDIA AND COMMUNICATION RESEARCH channels to reach researchers, students, decision-makers, media practitioners, journalists, information officers, teachers, and interested members of the general public. Nordicom works to establish and strengthen links between the Nordic research community and colleagues in all parts of the world, both through information and by linking individual researchers, research www.nordicom.gu.se groups and institutions. Nordicom documents media trends in the Nordic countries. Our joint Nordic information service addresses users throughout our region, in Europe and further afield. The production of comparative media statistics forms the core of this service. Nordicom has been commissioned by UNESCO and the Swedish Government to operate The International Clearinghouse on Children, Youth and Media, whose aim it is to keep users around the world abreast of current research findings and insights in this area. An institution of the Nordic Council of Ministers, Nordicom operates at both national and regional levels.
