Learn more about the various diversity and inclusion projects at NMH!
Over the past four years, several projects focusing on diversity and inclusion have emerged. Now, we would like to gather and present some of these!
During their allocated 10 minutes, the project leaders will share a bit about how they work with these themes, and challenges within their respective projects.
The seminar also marks the conclusion of the two-year Balanseprosjektet (Balance Project).
