Thematic framework

The technological development of Artificial Intelligence is rapidly evolving, and its use and implementation is changing and developing in unpredictable patterns. Ethical and responsible use of AI is at the heart of this initiative. Applications should respond to societal challenges that the Nordic and Nordic-Baltic region is facing. These challenges include, but are not limited to, ageing populations, ongoing structural developments in the labour market, societal and political polarisation, health systems, education, competence development and lifelong learning and the green transition of the economy. Projects are expected to support optimal utilisation of AI, with minimal risks and threats, and to the benefits of citizens, businesses and the societies. Applications should also address AI specific challenges with a clear Nordic or Nordic-Baltic added value.

The conditions for design and implementation of AI are currently changing rapidly. For example, the EU AI act will come into full effect during the course of the initiative, preliminarily during the first half of 2026. There are considerable unknowns about which effects the legislation will have in general and on the Nordic and Baltic countries in particular. Research funded in this call should include aspects of the effects of the new legislation and its implementation, when relevant.

Eligibility Requirements

A strategic priority of the Nordic Council of Ministers is for the Nordic collaboration to contribute to a green, competitive and socially sustainable region. Responsible and ethical use of AI will be vital in achieving these priorities as well as many of the UN sustainability goals. Research is essential to be able to release the potential of technology solutions in a knowledgeable, responsible and ethically sound way.

The aim of this call is to fund excellent research activities that address shared Nordic and Nordic-Baltic societal challenges in the context of extensive use and implementation of AI in the region. The initiative should contribute to cross-border mobilisation of capacity and competence building among Nordic and Nordic-Baltic research communities and strengthen networks and collaborations.
