As minister of culture, she oversaw the government's first culture message to Parliament in over 14 years,[4] and the separation between the Church of Norway and the state, which saw the church becoming a separate entity rather than an agency subjected to the state.[5]

Minister of Children and Equality

Minister of Districts and Digitalisation

She rejoined the cabinet on 24 January 2020 upon being appointed minister of districts and digitalisation when the Progress Party withdrew from the government.[1]

Vice President of WADA

Helleland was elected vice president of the World Anti-Doping Agency in 2016 representing governments in WADAs Foundation Board and Executive Committee. Near the end of her term, she released a book, detailing her experiences as vice president. She described a toxic working environment and uses of threats and intimidation. Furthermore she described how she was gradually isolated from her coworkers and a determining relationship with WADA President Craig Reedie.[8]
