The National Spiritual Assembly of Scandinavia and Finland was a regional Bahá’í administrative body.
History[edit]
The establishment of a National Spiritual Assembly of Scandinavia and Finland was a goal of the Bahá’í community as early as 1955.[1]
It was established at a Convention held in Stockholm in 1957.[2] It was disbanded in 1962 when independent National Assemblies were established in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, and Finland.
