Description

The Norwegian Directorate for Culture (Kulturdirektoratet) administers five subsidy schemes to strengthen the language, culture, identity, and self-organization of national minorities. The national minorities in Norway are Kvens/Norwegian Finns, Forest Finns, Romani people/Taters, Roma, and Jews. These schemes are key instruments for active civic participation and the strengthening of language and culture.

The purpose of the evaluation is to gain knowledge about whether, to what extent, and in what way the subsidy schemes contribute to achieving the established goals, and how they can potentially be further developed to better strengthen national minorities' language and culture. The contractor shall assess whether the schemes are efficient in terms of resource utilization, organization, and goal achievement
