Partner Nation

The Partner Nation status at the Warsaw Security Forum is granted to a state that seeks to strengthen its relationship with Poland and Central & Eastern Europe by co-organizing a specific edition of the conference.

In 2026, Norway will hold this status, playing a key role in shaping the agenda of WSF2026. This collaboration will include:
— Securing high-level participation of Norwegian state officials;
— Showcasing Norwegian culture as part of the conference program;
— Engaging leading Norwegian think tanks as program partners for the event;
— Strengthening Engagement Through Diplomatic Visits.

Throughout 2026, the Warsaw Security Forum team will conduct fact-finding, advocacy & parliamentary visits to Oslo to engage directly with high-level politicians and representatives of leading think tanks. It will also engage Norwegian Partners in a number of events organized in Warsaw, in the run-up to the conference.
