We have all seen reports on social media about the suffering on the ground in Gaza. But what is it like to be a medical student when bombs are falling around you and your university is completely destroyed? Can you even make room for studies when you have to live in tents and find water and food? And what does higher education in general, and medical education in particular, mean for a society?
Come and listen to medical students from Gaza talk about the importance of higher education in conversation with our own Uswa Malik, introduced by Dean Hanne Flinstad Harbo and with concluding remarks by Vice Dean Magnus L?berg.
SAIH will tell us about the significance of higher education in times of war and conflict.

Hi,
It is slippery outside, and many people use ice cleats or studded winter boots to stay on their feet.
We have received feedback that some are using their ice cleats indoors when going to and from their offices or reading rooms. The spikes can cause damage to the floor, so we kindly request that employees and students remove and put on their ice cleats in the entrance area.
Kind regards,
The Estate Department
