Stronger together in healthcare
The Nordic University Hospital Alliance (NUHA) is an alliance between the university hospitals in Stockholm, Oslo, Helsinki, Reykjavik and Copenhagen.
The alliance was founded to meet the growing demands on healthcare systems: ageing populations, rising chronic and rare diseases, and higher expectations for quality and sustainability are reshaping healthcare and driving the need for collaboration and innovation.
In NUHA we share the ambition to strengthen relationships and strategically collaborate to benefit the patients, not just in the Nordic region, but across Europe and beyond.
Through this strategic partnership we strive to promote excellence in healthcare, research, and education - sharing best practices, improving patient outcomes, and driving innovation across borders.
Vision and mission of NUHA
NUHA's vision is to add value to patients and the overall healthcare system by addressing the major health challenges of our time and ensure a sustainable healthcare system in the Nordics. This also entails strengthening collaboration around research & innovation and promoting Nordic health solutions and diplomacy.
The mission of NUHA is to deliver better healthcare and outcomes by harnessing the collective strengths of the Nordic university hospitals.
NUHA promotes networks between hospitals and facilitates a number of working groups within Patientcare, Education and Research & Innovation.
From Rigshospitalet the collaboration is directly linked to the Board of Management by following representation:

This ensures a strategic and operational focus on cooperation around Benchmarking, Future Health, Rare Diseases, and Platform Trials.
Each area brings together multidisciplinary experts from across our member hospitals, promoting shared insights, joint initiatives, and innovations that benefit patients across the region and beyond.
Through NUHA, we can shape the future of healthcare together in the Nordics and beyond, creating value for both the patient and the healthcare system.
