Providing strategic, catalytic, and innovative support to India’s National Health Mission (NHM), NIPI is testing scalable interventions in Bihar, Odisha, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Jammu and Kashmir.

Norway and India share a common vision and stand committed to fostering collaborative efforts to solve priority health issues. In 2006, the two democracies started a health initiative called Norway-India Partnership Initiative (NIPI) with a vision for providing strategic, catalytic, and innovative support to India’s National Health Mission.

During the past 17 years of its implementation, NIPI has envisaged a unique model of development cooperation and an efficient mechanism of testing our ‘innovative ideas in public health settings’. NIPI has demonstrated the importance of aligning with national priorities, and leveraging local expertise through a strong governance framework at the national and state levels using the health system approach.

With the view to further strengthen the relationship between our two countries, the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India agreed to extend the cooperation with a Phase IV of NIPI.

As a first step, a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed on 1st July 2024 by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW), the Government of India, the Government of Norway and the supported states of Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Jammu & Kashmir.
