Over the last three years, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has increased its funding for cultural cooperation with other countries – including funding for literature projects – and it has made a major effort to internationalise Norwegian literature, as part of the Government’s arts promotion programme.
UD har de siste tre årene økt støtten til kultursamarbeid med utlandet – inklusive støtten til litteraturprosjekter – og gjort et krafttak for internasjonalisering av norsk litteratur, som en del av Kulturløftet.

Transparency into government travel activities
Åpenhet om statens reisevirksomhet
During the first half of 2008, the 137 000 state employees in Norway made 260 000 round trip air flights.
Tallene innebærer at hver ansatt i gjennomsnitt gjennomførte i underkant av to reiser første halvår i år.
This means that each individual employee made an average of two trips during this period, according to new FAD estimates.
Dette viser nye beregninger FAD har gjennomført.
The total travel distance is estimated to be approximately 250 million kilometers.
Samlet utgjør reisingen en distanse på ca 250 millioner kilometer.
The estimate is based on reporting from state enterprises.
Anslaget baserer seg på rapporteringer fra statlige virksomheter.
Climate quotas to be purchased for foreign travel State employees made around 85,000 international round trip flights during the first half of 2008.
Kjøper klimakvoter for utenlandsreiser Statsansatte gjennomførte om lag 85 000 internasjonale reiser, tur og retur, første halvår 2008.
This sums up to a total travel distance of more than 161 million kilometers.
Dette innebærer vel 161 millioner kilometer reist distanse.
The government last year decided to purchase climate quotas corresponding to the carbon dioxide emissions caused by foreign air travel made by state employees.
Regjeringen besluttet i fjor å kjøpe klimakvoter som tilsvarer de CO2-utslippene som forårsakes av statsansattes utenlandsreiser med fly.
- Climate changes are the greatest environmental challenge we are facing today and a threat to a sustainable social and economic development.
- Klimaendringer er den største miljøutfordringen vi står overfor i dag for og en trussel mot en bærekraftig sosial og økonomisk utvikling.
I am pleased that we now have factual numbers providing us with a basis for the purchase of climate quotas.
Jeg er glad for at vi nå får faktiske tall som gir grunnlag for kjøp av klimakvoter.
This is an important contribution to a reduction of climate gases emissions, Mr Leknes says.
Dette er et viktig bidrag til reduserte utslipp av klimagasser, sier Leknes.
Climate quotas A climate quota is a saleable right to emit one metric ton of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
Dette er klimakvoter En klimakvote er en omsettelig rettighet til å slippe ut ett tonn CO2 i atmosfæren.
A quota bound country or enterprise must be in possession of climate quotas in order to be allowed to emit carbon dioxide.
Et land eller en bedrift som er "kvotepliktig" må være i besittelse av klimakvoter for å kunne slippe ut CO2.
When Norway purchases such quotas, it reduces the amount of quotas that may grant a right to emissions from other sources.
Når Norge kjøper slike kvoter, reduseres mengden av kvoter som kan gi rett til utslipp fra andre kilder.
This leads to a reduction of the total amount of climate gas emissions in the world.
Dermed går de samlede klimagassutslippene i verden ned.
International air travel is not quota bound according to present regulations.
Internasjonale flyreiser er ikke kvotepliktige etter dagens regler.
Every single international air flight therefore contributes to an increase in global emissions.
Hver internasjonale flyreise vil derfor bidra til en økning av de globale utslippene.
This year, NOK 10 million is appropriated for the purchase of climate quotas.
10 millioner kroner er satt av inneværende år til kjøp av klimakvoter.
This amount is supposed to cover international flights made by government officials on duty.
Midlene skal dekke statsansattes internasjonale tjenestereiser med fly.
If necessary, state agencies are authorized to use an additional NOK 12,5 million for this purpose.
Om nødvendig kan ytterligere 12,5 millioner kroner brukes til dette formålet gjennom en bevilgningsfullmakt.
