Since 2008, Latvia has been a full participant in Nordplus, the Nordic Council of Ministers’ programme for education. JVLMA actively participates in higher music education networks within the programme, including Nordplus Classic (classical music), NordPuls (jazz), NordOpera (opera and vocal music), and NordTrad (traditional music).

Within Nordplus, JVLMA implements student and teacher mobility and regularly participates in international intensive courses, masterclasses, concerts, and joint artistic and educational projects, acting both as a project coordinator and a partner institution.

An important part of Nordic-Baltic cooperation is also JVLMA’s participation in the Association of Nordic Music Academies (ANMA).
