Project funding from the North Atlantic Co-operation (NORA)
NORA provides financial grants in support of collaborative projects involving partners from at least two of the four NORA countries (Faroe Islands, Greenland, Iceland and Coastal Norway). NORA will contribute to strengthening collaboration within the region in order to make the North Atlantic a powerful Nordic region, characterized by strong, sustainable economic development. This happens by strengthening collaboration among the business community, the research organisations and the development agencies throughout the region.
Grant financing from the Nordic Development Fund
NDF provides grant financing for climate change investments in low-income countries. Eligible areas for NDF grant financing include climate change mitigation and adaptation activities. NDF grants are provided mainly for technical assistance, i.e. consulting services, and for investments, i.e. goods, works, services, and for other applicable expenses in connection with technical assistance.
Grants from NordForsk for seed-corn funding
NordForsk provides seed-corn funding to research environments in the Nordic Region and the Baltic countries in order to support outstanding research at an early stage. The intention is to identify and strengthen promising academic initiatives that may later develop into outstanding research results at elite level. Relatively little funding is required to facilitate the development of new ideas until they can be promoted elsewhere. Research environments in the Nordic Region and the Baltic countries are eligible to apply. To be eligible for funding, projects must involve participants from a minimum of either three Nordic countries, or two Nordic and one Baltic.
New Nordic Food
The purpose of the New Nordic Food programme is to develop and increase the visibility of Nordic values in, for example, food culture, gastronomy, raw materials, tourism, design, health, animal welfare and business development. A minimum of three Nordic countries must be involved. Grants are only available to cover meeting costs and other direct costs, not original work, overheads, etc.
Project funding from the Nordic Joint Committee for Agricultural and Food Research
The Nordic Joint Committee for Agricultural and Food Research initiates and funds joint Nordic research projects of high quality in the agricultural sphere. Applications for project funding for research-related activities are welcome, for example, for seminars and forming networks. At least three Nordic countries must be involved for a project to be eligible for funding.
Grants from the Nordic Council of Ministers under the Nordic strategy for sustainable development 2009–2012

The Nordic Forest Research Co-operation Committee's funding scheme
The Nordic Forest Research Co-operation Committee (SNS) funds research related to forestry, forests and other wooded areas (landscapes, parks, urban trees and marginal land), the utilisation of wood and other forest products, as well as the non-commercial values of the forests. The fund provides support for co-operation involving at least three Nordic countries. The project may also include countries in the Nordic Region's Adjacent Areas.
Funding from the Nordic Working Group for Diet, Food & Toxicology (NKMT)
