The Danish programme for the Presidency of the Nordic Council of Ministers in 2015 focuses on the themes of growth, welfare, values and the Blue Arctic. Education, research and innovation play key roles in – and across – all four themes. The Nordic countries have close links with each other, sharing common history, culture and values. The Nordic welfare model is built on our understanding of democracy, the recognition that everyone has equal value and is entitled to equal rights, and respect for the community, to which everybody contributes and the benefits of which are enjoyed by all. Common strengths and strong Nordic values can be found across all of the Nordic education systems.
