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.
