Drivers of Trust in Public Institutions in Norway
Trust in public institutions is a cornerstone of the Norwegian administrative and
political model. It has also been a crucial element in Norway’s response to the COVID-19
pandemic. Preserving and strengthening this “trust capital” will be essential for
Norway in addressing future trade-offs and challenges, such as ensuring the sustainability
of the welfare model, coping with climate change and maintaining social cohesion.
Based on the results of the OECD Survey on Drivers of Trust in Public Institutions
and using a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods, this study examines
the main determinants of trust in Norway’s national government, local government and
public administration.
