Levande og attraktive bygder og grender - kring villreinfjella Setesdal Vesthei Ryfylkeheiane og Setesdal Austhei

This is a regional support scheme for the Heiplanen (Highland Plan) financed by the Norwegian Environment Agency and four county municipalities (Telemark, Agder, Rogaland, and Vestland). The goal of the funding scheme is village and business development around the wild reindeer mountains with focus on vibrant and attractive villages and communities. Village and business development is one of the priority areas in the Heiplanen, and the support scheme is anchored in the Action Program 2024-2027. The program aims to facilitate activities and experiences that communicate natural and cultural heritage connected to the wild reindeer mountains and that complement the unique character of the villages and communities. These activities and experiences should strengthen the villages and communities as places to live, work, and visit.
