Although Norway is regarded as relatively proactive in human rights matters, ranking first in the UN Development Program's Human Development Index for 12 of the last 15 years, human rights issues still arise[2]. The most prevalent issue in recent history is the struggle for land rights by the Indigenous Sami people, under the threat of the Norwegian government exploiting the Sápmi region for natural resources[3].
