They will be able to choose for themselves whether they vote electronically or in the normal way.
Dei kan altså sjølve bestemme om dei vil røyste elektronisk eller på vanleg måte.
I hope that as many as possible will vote electronically,” says Minister of Local Government and Regional Development Liv Signe Navarsete.

Motivation, competence, size, composition of population, geography, communication and infrastructure have been important factors for the assessment.
Motivasjon, kompetanse, storleik, befolkningssamansetjing, geografi, kommunikasjon og infrastruktur har vore viktige faktorar i vurderinga.
The municipalities will also be helping to develop this solution, together with the ministry.
Kommunane skal òg bidra til å utvikle denne løysinga i samarbeid med departementet.
One county will also be selected to try out the electoral administration system for its county council election.
Ein fylkeskommune vil òg verte valt ut til å teste det valadministrative datasystemet.
The Internet voting trial will be evaluated by external researchers.
Forsøket med å røyste over Internett skal evaluerast av eksterne forskingsmiljø.
Last September, 56 municipalities were invited to apply to take part in the trial and 35 of them actually did so.
56 kommunar vart i september i fjor inviterte til å søkje om å delta i forsøket, og 35 av desse kommunane søkte.

Innovation for global health and education
Stor innovasjonsdugnad for global helse og utdanning
With the help of some of the world’s tech giants, Norway has developed two game-based learning apps that can be used anywhere.
Med hjelp fra verdens beste spillaktører har Norge utviklet to pedagogiske mobilspill som kan brukes uansett hvor barn befinner seg.
An estimated 2.5 million Syrian children are not able to attend school because of the armed conflict.
2,5 millioner syriske barn har mistet muligheten til å gå på skole på grunn av væpnet konflikt.
Education opportunities for a great many Syrian children and young people are extremely poor, both for those who are still in Syria and for those who have fled to other countries.
For svært mange syriske barn og ungdom er utdanningstilbudet veldig dårlig, både i Syria og for dem som er på flukt i andre land.
Last week she invited Syrian children who had fled from Aleppo to test the games in her official residence, together with Crown Princess Mette-Marit and Foreign Minister Børge Brende.
Før helgen inviterte hun syriske barn, som har flyktet fra Aleppo, til å teste spillene i statsministerboligen sammen med H.K.H. kronprinsesse Mette-Marit og utenriksminister Børge Brende.
They share an engagement in innovation, children and education, and have kept abreast of developments in the EduApp4Syria project.
De har et felles engasjement for innovasjon, unge og utdanning, og har fulgt utviklingen av EduApp4Syria-prosjektet.
The games have been tested by Syrian children in Jordan and Lebanon, countries that are hosting several million Syrian refugees, and where the educational capacity has been stretched beyond its limits.
Spillene er blitt testet av syriske barn i Jordan og Libanon, som har tatt imot flere millioner syriske flyktninger og der utdanningskapasiteten er sprengt.
‘The conflict in Syria has now entered its seventh year.
- Konflikten i Syria har nå gått inn i sitt syvende år.
Intense efforts are being made to rebuild schools and establish temporary education opportunities.
Det jobbes på høygir med å gjenoppbygge skoler og få på plass midlertidige undervisningstilbud.
Once children can use game-based apps to learn to read, that opens the doors for all other learning.
At barn kan få hjelp til å lære å lese gjennom mobilspill, åpner dørene for all annen læring.
Many of these children have also been traumatised.
Mange barn er også blitt traumatisert.
Learning through games makes it easier for them to achieve a sense of mastery and to acquire skills,’ said Foreign Minister Børge Brende.
Det at spillene oppleves som en lek, gjør det også lettere for dem å føle mestring og ta til seg kunnskap, sier utenriksminister Børge Brende.
The winning games, Feed the Monster and Antura, were launched today at an event led by Laila Bokhari, State Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, at Mobile Learning Week in Paris.
I dag lanseres vinnerspillene Feed the Monster og Antura på et arrangement ledet av statssekretær Laila Bokhari, under Mobile Learning Week i Paris.
We will evaluate how well they work, and then assess whether they should be developed in other languages and for other humanitarian crises,’ said Mr Brende.
Vi skal evaluere hvor godt de fungerer og deretter vurdere å videreutvikle dem for andre språk og andre humanitære kriser, sier utenriksministeren.
The games have been developed through an international competition led by Norad together with the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) and in partnership with All Children Reading: A Grand Challenge for Development, the mobile operator Orange and the Inter-Agency Network for Education in Emergencies (INEE).
Spillene er utviklet gjennom en internasjonal innovasjonskonkurranse ledet av Norad sammen med Norges Teknisk-Naturvitenskapelige Universitet (NTNU) og i partnerskap med All Children Reading: A Grand Challenge for Development, mobiloperatøren Orange og Utdanning-i-Krise-nettverket INEE.
The EduApp4Syria project is part of the Government’s global education efforts.
Prosjektet EduApp4Syria er en del av regjeringens globale utdanningssatsing.
Approximately 20 % of Norway’s aid for the Syrian crisis, which totalled NOK 2.7 billion in 2016, has been allocated to education.
20 prosent av Norges bistand til Syria-krisen på totalt 2,7 milliarder kroner i 2016 går til utdanning.
The games Feed the Monster and Antura can be downloaded for free from Google Play and the App Store, and can then be used without access to the internet.
Spillene Feed the Monster og Antura kan lastes ned gratis fra Google Play og App Store og deretter brukes uten nettilgang

Carsten Thomassen was a communicator.
Carsten Thomassen var en formidler.
Not a communicator with a fixed political agenda or a particular view of the world.
Ikke av en bestemt politikk eller et spesielt verdensbilde.
He spent nearly half his short life writing for newspapers, and his words have made a lasting mark.
Han satte varige spor med sine ord.
Critical journalism was Carsten Thomassen’s métier.
Carsten Thomassens fag var kritisk journalistikk.
Meetings with him could be challenging for those of us with political responsibility.
Derfor var han krevende å møte for oss med politisk ansvar.
His task was to delve beneath the surface, to look beyond the official versions of events.
Hans oppdrag var å se oss i kortene, å se bakenfor de offisielle historiene og versjonene.
That is how I remember him on the afternoon of 14 January in Kabul.
Slik husker jeg ham fra ettermiddagstimene 14. januar i Kabul.
He also had other plans.
Men han hadde også andre planer.
He wanted – as usual – to look behind and beyond the set programme of ministerial visits and meetings.
Han ville – som vanlig – bakenfor og utenfor den virkeligheten som følger av ministerens program og møter.
But then he became a victim of an appalling act of terrorism.
Så ble han offer for en fryktelig terrorhandling.
An act of terrorism that hit this very person who was seeking to communicate a broader picture.
Terroren rammet nettopp ham som ville formidle et bredere bilde.
An act that demonstrated terrorism’s wanton, irrational nature.
Dermed spilte terrorens vilkårlighet seg ut for oss.
For those of us who experienced the events in Kabul on 14 and 15 January, the death of Carsten Thomassen is permanently imprinted on our memories.
Vi som opplevde kvelden og natten fra 14. til 15. januar i Kabul vil være merket av drapet på Carsten Thomassen for alltid.
All over Norway, people have expressed their sorrow and distress at the loss of one of the country’s leading journalists, someone with whom many people felt a connection.
Over hele Norge har folk uttrykt sin sorg og fortvilelse over tapet av en av landets ledende journalister som mange hadde fått et forhold til.
I would like to pay tribute to the members of the press who fought to save his life in the hotel lobby and on the way to the hospital.
Jeg vil anerkjenne pressekollegene som kjempet for å berge ham i hotellets lobby og på veien til sykehuset.
You showed great courage.
Dere viste stort mot.
This is a terrible loss for all Carsten Thomassen’s colleagues at Dagbladet, and our thoughts are with you.
Våre tanker er hos dere.
But the heaviest and most painful burden rests on his family.
Men tyngst og mest smertelig er dette for familien.
I would like to turn to you now, Ellen, Aurora and Eiril, and express heartfelt sympathy, solidarity and concern.
Jeg vender meg spesielt til dere – Ellen, Aurora og Eiril – og uttrykker vår medfølelse, solidaritet og omsorg.
You are not alone.
Dere står ikke alene.
Although this is a day of great darkness, we know that the days will gradually grow longer and brighter.
Men sakte vil dagene bli lengre og lysere.
Our memories of Carsten’s life and work as a fellow human being, as a journalist and as a communicator will live on, and illuminate our lives.
Våre inntrykk av Carstens liv og virke som medmenneske, journalist og som formidler vil leve videre – og det er lysende inntrykk.
For one thing is certain: Carsten Thomassen made the world easier to grasp.
For dette blir stående: Carsten Thomassen gjorde verden mer begripelig.
He was an important part of the mosaic of Norwegian democracy.
Han var en viktig mosaikkbit i det norske demokratiet.
All that he wrote lives on.
Alt han skrev er spor som ikke viskes ut.
