Norwegian Roadmap for Research Infrastructure 2023
Research infrastructures in Europe
For many decades, Norwegian researchers have participated actively in international research organisations. The cooperation in these organisations is based on international agreements where the fees for each member state are determined on the basis of a contractual calculation key where the gross domestic product or equivalent is a main factor. Table 1 shows which Norwegian memberships of international research organisations receive funding from the ministries.
