Who can apply: Projects must motivate participation, engagement, and shared responsibility in community life, the voluntary sector, and democracy; intended for nationwide projects.
Nordea-fonden supports projects that strengthen community life in Denmark, with a strong emphasis on participation, local association life, and democratic engagement. It also invests heavily in outdoor activity and access to nature, as well as initiatives that help children and young people thrive and develop with others. The funder stands out for backing both large nationwide initiatives and smaller local projects, including renovation of shared meeting places that can revive community life.
Mixed giving pattern: large nationwide grants typically over DKK 1 million for strategic programs, alongside smaller local grants up to DKK 200,000. Funding is program-based and thematic, with a mix of project support and a dedicated renovation pool for community venues.
Apply through the relevant program rather than a general open call, and tailor proposals closely to Nordea-fonden’s themes of community, participation, outdoor life, or youth development. For local projects, keep requests within the DKK 200,000 range; for nationwide projects, position the work as scalable and broad-reaching, typically above DKK 1 million. For renovation support, emphasize preservation and renewed community use rather than demolition.
