‌The 2023 Nor.Ca. Women's Handball Championship was the fifth edition of the championship, held from 5 to 11 June 2023 in Nuuk, Greenland under the aegis of North America and Caribbean Handball Confederation.[1] It was the first time in history that the championship was organised by the Greenland Handball Federation and it also acted as the qualification tournament for the 2023 World Women's Handball Championship, with the top team from the championship directly qualifying for the event.[2][3]

Greenland won their first title after defeating Canada in the final.[4]
