Senter for forsvarsevne, sikkerhet og beredskap

This call announces the establishment of research centres for defence capability, security and emergency preparedness. The page states that five to nine centres are to be established, and that the centres must conduct research that strengthens Norway's defence capability, societal resilience and economic security while building capacity between research organisations, industry, the public sector and other actors. One centre must address societal security and preparedness ("samfunnssikkerhet og beredskap").

The instrument is a grant. Only approved Norwegian research organisations may apply — the page states "Bare godkjente, norske forskningsorganisasjoner kan søke" (only approved Norwegian research organisations can apply). The page prints the state-aid basis label "GBER XX/2026/R&D&I".

At the time of fetching, the application deadline is given as "Kommer" (to be announced); no opening date, budget figures or amounts are stated on the page. The page provides the full PDF call text. Questions are directed to the Research Council's contact form.
