Score Analysis
Analysis of Norway's policy signalling profile
Norway scores 55.01 on the WokeMeter, placing it 17th globally, indicating a moderate-to-high level of policy signalling intensity. This score reflects a balanced approach across various dimensions, with no significant changes in recent trends or events that would alter the composite score. Norway's policies underscore a steady commitment to Western-style progressive policy frameworks, without extreme overreach or rollback. The country's position in the 90.9th percentile demonstrates its alignment with countries that maintain a robust signalling intensity, particularly in areas like gender equality and institutional DEI policies.
Examining the dimension scores, Norway maintains a consistent signalling intensity across all areas, each around the 55 mark. The Speech & Expression Climate, along with Institutional DEI Policy Intensity, show similar signalling levels, indicating a balanced approach to promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion. Areas such as Education & Curriculum Signalling and Legislative/Regulatory Activism are also evenly matched, reflecting moderate legislative engagement with progressive ideals. The relatively uniform scores across dimensions suggest that Norway's policy signalling is stable and comprehensive, without a dominant focus on any single dimension. This consistent approach results in an overall moderate signalling intensity in line with its global rank.
