Details

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. On behalf of the Ministry of Local Government and Regional Development, the Directorate for Culture is now issuing a tender for an external evaluation of these schemes. 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

Documents

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission for this financial & professional services opportunity. Always verify the details on the official source.

  • Confirm the exact closing date and time (and time zone) on the official portal — deadlines are strict and can be revised by a corrigendum.
  • Read the full notice and every attached document, including the scope, specifications and any bill of quantities or terms of reference.
  • Check the eligibility criteria — prior similar experience, annual turnover, certifications and registrations — and make sure you qualify before investing effort.
  • Prepare any earnest-money deposit (EMD) or bid security and the required formats early; missing or wrongly-formatted documents are a common cause of rejection.
  • Note how bids must be submitted (online or physical), in what format, and whether a digital signature or portal registration is required.
  • Watch for corrigenda and clarifications right up to the deadline — requirements and dates can change.
