The Norwegian Biodiversity Information Centre (NBIC) is a national source of information on biodiversity. The centre's main function is to supply the public with updated and accessible information on Norwegian species and ecosystems. 

NBIC is also making an effort to increase the focus on biodiversity and raise public awareness about it. The objective is to provide the public debate with up-to-date, correct information. This will help to make the issue of biodiversity an important factor in decision-making processes.
