Research at the School of Education, Humanities and Social Sciences

The School of Education, Humanities and Social Sciences develops sustainable models for collaboration with the surrounding society, for example through prominent elements of work-based research within the three research areas digitisation, learning and social change. The areas are also linked to the global goals of Agenda 2030, which focus on sustainability, equality and justice.

Learning in the digital society, responsibility and democracy, European border policy, storytelling, names and identity are examples of themes within the research. The research is practice-oriented and is often conducted in collaboration with other actors in society. LHS’s research asks critical questions, challenges established ways of thinking, is driven by curiosity and has the potential to contribute to innovative solutions to society’s challenges.
