Nordforsk

NordForsk is an organisation under the Nordic Council of Ministers that provides funding for Nordic research cooperation as well as advice and input on Nordic research policy.

 

NordForsk works to enhance added value to existing research activities in the Nordic countries, and thereby strengthen the position and influence of Nordic research, both in Europe and globally. With the purpose to promote excellence in research, the organisation launches strategic initiatives which bring together national research groups in large-scale Nordic programmes based on common pot.

NordForsk also initiates debate on research policy issues and provides the Nordic Council of Ministers with the best possible policy advice as a basis for joint Nordic research strategies and priorities.
