How does the flow of news and information differ among citizens in different residential areas? In the article “The Media Day, Revisited: Rhythm, Place and Hyperlocal Information Environments”, Henrik Örnebring and Erika Hellekant-Rowe study six areas in Karlstad municipality.
If you thought that newspapers and news via radio and television – also called traditional media – were dead, you need to think again. They are very much alive.
CSD started in 2006 and consists of 20 researchers at Karlstad university. We collaborate with researchers from other universities in Sweden, the Nordics and internationally.

Under de senaste tjugo åren har ett växande antal globala och regionala etnonationalistiska, religiösa fundamentalistiska och neo-konservativa sociala rörelser, nätverk och organisationer kommit att förenats kring försvar av binära förståelser av kön och sexualitet och ett försvar för den heterosexuella kärnfamiljen.

COVID-19 and the Enforced Digitalization of Academic Life
November 5
14.00-17.00 local time (Sweden)
(1pm-4pm GMT)
The Covid-19 pandemic has affected people around the world and brought with it many challenges, beyond the obvious tragedy of lives lost and health issues. Closure has been an evident consequence; borders, societies, schools, universities.
Practical placement
Through the practical placement included in different courses in Civics, contacts are established with the schools which receive our students. In courses which include longer periods of practical placement, the cooperation with schools is enhanced through the visits and other personal contacts that are employed to follow and support the students’ development.
Critical studies on age and ageing focus on social dimensions of age and ageing in everyday life and in society. The research group is multidisciplinary with a mutual interest in critical and social science perspectives on age and ageing.
Instead of taking age for granted, the research group’s critical perspective focuses on age as an important basis for the distribution of opportunities, rights, and obligations in society.

With the emergence of firms such as Spotify, Uber and Airbnb, the markets related to music, travel and accommodation have lately been under dramatic changes.
Data-driven systems require a massive amount of data to be processed in order to make intelligent decisions. The focus area “Infrastructure” addresses research the is required in order to make intelligent decisions at scale where needed.
This requires research and developments in the area of Cloud Computing for scalability and elasticity in order to process large volumes of data.
Samhällsnytta turns service research into practical activity. The idea is to help the government and Swedish authorities tackle major societal challenges.
Samhällsnytta AB was founded in 2021 and has developed into a national meeting place for actors at various levels in community building.
- What was once just an idea has become a reality, says Johan Quist, CEO of Samhällsnytta, researcher and deputy director of the Center for Service Research (CTF).
