Organisation

Each member school is represented in Norteas by an academic leader and an international coordinator. Norteas chooses a chair and a network coordinator every third year at the annual network meeting. Additionally, three coordinators are selected for a working group that supports the network coordinator in administration, such as applying for funding, distributing grants, planning joint activities, etc. The annual meeting takes place in November each year and consists of a seminar, a joint network meeting, a coordinators' meeting, and a meeting for academic leaders. This is where the network makes its decisions on projects and priorities. The meeting is an important platform for discussing future projects and an opportunity for staff development.

For the years 2022-2024, the Norteas network is hosted at the University of Arts Helsinki, Theatre Academy:
Norteas Coordinator: Lotta Karlsson (lotta.karlsson@uniarts.fi)
