Earlier this month, the Institute of International Affairs at the University of Iceland, in collaboration with the Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Iceland, hosted the Nordic–India Dialogue in Reykjavík on September 4–5. This was the second edition in the series and was organized in partnership with the Swedish Institute of International Affairs (UI), Ananta Centre, the Norwegian Institute of International Affairs (NUPI), the Finnish Institute of International Affairs (FIIA), and the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). The Nordic–India Dialogue highlighted shared democratic values and strong potential for cooperation in climate action, green technologies, digital innovation, and the blue economy. Discussions underscored India’s rapid economic rise, sustainability agenda, and the importance of balanced global partnerships in a shifting world order. Maritime security, Arctic–Indian Ocean linkages, and resource resilience emerged as critical areas of collaboration, alongside opportunities in trade, technology, and higher education. The dialogue concluded that combining Nordic expertise with India’s scale and dynamism can drive sustainable growth, innovation, and global stability. #NordicIndiaRelations
