Connection to Global Steering Group for Impact

NorNAB was established in 2023 and has a strong international connection and origin.

Global Steering Group for Impact (GSG) is an international gathering of national advisory boards (NABs) with the same purpose as NorNAB. The GSG was established in 2013 as a "social impact investment taskforce" under the British presidency of the G8.

Today, the GSG consists of 40 national and regional advisory boards representing 38 countries. In addition, an additional 20+ national advisory boards are under development or on their way to becoming members.
