Sustainable development, democracy and equity are topical issues. Students in the social sciences and humanities develop knowledge and skills to deal with such issues and to implement useful ideas.
Such abilities will be even more valued with an increasingly internationalised and borderless world. At the same time local issues grow in importance for the individual, who wants to live, work and exert influence on the local community.
Seminar materials are normally distributed via the KuFo and ISLI mailing lists. Anyone not reached by these lists should feel free to contact us.
Our seminars and other events are open to anyone who is interested!

Welcome to a GlobeLife network webinar titled "Debunking Disaster Myths" on 22 March. The webinar is a collaboration between the Centre of Natural Hazards and Disaster Science and Karolinska Institutet.

Stefan Wagnsson, docent in sports science at Karlstad University took a walk around Skutberget with his good friend and colleague Leslie Podlog, professor of sports science at Université de Montreal.
