Education for Tomorrow
NordForsk in collaboration with the Academy of Finland; the Swedish Research Council; the Research Council of Norway; the Ministry of Education, Science and Culture of Iceland; and the Danish Council for Strategic Research is issuing a call for proposals for research projects in a newly established programme entitled Education for Tomorrow.

- Governance: internationalisation and multi-level governance
- Education and the welfare state
- Equity and equal access
