Main content

The Pandemic Centre welcomes you to a new "Pandemifrokost" in Alrek helseklynge. This time we are joined by Tove Ingebjørg Fjell from the Faculty of Humanities and Prabhjot Kour from the Pandemic Centre.

Tove Ingebjørg Fjell is a professor in cultural studies and will present some counter-narratives about COVID-19. The opposing voices come from several groups, such as the far right, alternative environments and conservative Christians.

Prabhjot Kour has recently started working at the Pandemic Centre and has a background from the Norwegian Institute of Public Health (FHI)  Kour has a Master's degree in international health work and will present a qualitative study that has investigated how vaccine skepticism and hesitation can be reduced among various immigrant groups in Norway. The starting point for the research was that these groups were underrepresented when the corona vaccination was rolled out.

As usual, there will be coffee and a snack for everyone who register.
