The co-operation programme for the Nordic Council of Ministers for Education and Research (MR-U) sets the direction for co-operation at ministerial level on education, research and languages from November 2019 until November 2023. The purpose is to enhance co-operation based on the political agendas of the Nordic countries, including the Faroe Islands, Greenland and Åland. With regard to education and research, the vision is of a region that continues to be a world leader in knowledge and welfare. The Nordic Council of Ministers for Education and Research focuses on three strategic areas – education, research and language – and on further developing existing initiatives and forms of co-operation, as well as identifying new ones. On 14 September 2021, MR-U decided to extend the co-operation programme until the end of 2024.
