Nordic Council of Ministers

The Nordic Council of Ministers act as a forum for cooperation between the Nordic countries since 1971. The work is coordinated by the Nordic ministers for specific policy areas. In this context the Ministers of Culture see their overall goal in encouraging diversity of cultural expression and promoting artists and their work. NCM supports the coordinators of PA Culture politically and project-related.
