The Norwegian Humanist Association is an organisation for people who base their ethics on human, not religious values.

According to its bylaws, the organization works to ensure access to humanist ceremonies and spreading knowledge of humanism.

[4] A civil confirmation organized by HEF has gained popularity among the Norwegian young during recent years.

He argued that the second article of the constitution of Norway which defines the "Evangelical-Lutheran Religion" as "the official religion of the State" and the 12th article of the constitution which requires half of the ministers of the cabinet to be members of the state church is discriminatory, and that Norway cannot criticise countries advocating sharia law when the constitution favours Lutheran members of society.

Although raising public awareness of scepticism is not a primary goal of the Norwegian Humanist Association, an online campaign was organized in 2011 called Ingen liker å bli lurt (No one likes to be fooled),[8] which led to media debate of the issues.
