The Nordic Network for Music Education (NNME) is a state-sponsored organization that supports professional music teacher education across eight countries in Northern Europe. It includes the 15 institutions in the Nordic and Baltic states that award professional postgraduate (Master) degrees in the specialized field of music education.

Sponsored by the Nordplus program of the Nordic Council of Ministers, for over 20 years the NNME has offered an intensive annual Master course and supported 'mobility' exchange of music lecturers and Master students across the member institutions, enabling sharing of specialized knowledge in this field. Founded by Torunn Bakken Hauge, it is now managed by David Hebert at Western Norway University of Applied Sciences. The NNME has also produced a book and various online resources.[1]

The NNME’s institutional coordinators, across the eight Nordic and Baltic countries (Iceland, Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania), have included notable music education researchers such as Lars Brinck, Cecilia Ferm Almqvist, Jorgen Folkestad, Helga Rut Guðmundsdóttir, Marja Heimonen, Geir Johansen, Harald Jorgensen, Kai Karma, Kristi Kiilu, Mara Marnauza, Fredrik Pio, Eva Saether, and Lauri Vakeva, to name a few.[2]
