On March 22, 2026, the Norwegian Film Institute (NFI) joined a new initiative announced on March 17 during CPH:DOX, collaborating with Nordic public broadcasters SVT, NRK, DR, Yle, and RÚV, along with the Danish, Swedish, Icelandic, and Finnish film institutes, to launch a joint call supporting high-quality non-fiction projects. Previously, on February 3, 2026, the NFI revealed a new strategy plan, stating that Norwegian stories demonstrate strong impact and possess "strong talents and clear identity" in the global landscape for attention and language. This followed news from November 30, 2025, that the 46th Fantasporto International Film Festival, scheduled for February 28 to March 9, 2026, would feature a unique retrospective dedicated to Norwegian cinema. Earlier, on September 11, 2025, the NFI, alongside national film institutes from Denmark, Sweden, Finland, and Iceland, committed to implementing the Nordic Ecological Standard for sustainable film and TV production from 2026, aiming to significantly reduce the audiovisual industry's environmental footprint in the five Nordic countries.
