Solfrid holds a bachelor and a master’s degree in social anthropology at the University of Oslo, with exchange at Universidad Nacional de Córdoba in Argentina and a stay as student-intern at the Norwegian Embassy in Santiago. In her master thesis she studied the work on climate and environment at the Norwegian Agriculture Agency, and wrote about their employee’s use of care in their work and their relations to emotions and knowledge.
At SUM, Solfrid will be working on the PANDEMEAT project: Pandemic Entanglements: The Political Ecology of Industrial Meat Production in the “Pandemic Era”, in which she investigates preventive work against avian influenza by Norwegian national management institutions.
Solfrid will also be part of the Rural Transformations research group at SUM.
– We are very lucky to have Solfrid joining our research group. Her research enriches the project with exciting perspectives, says Mariel Aguilar-Støen, who leads the PANDEMEAT project and the Rural Transformations research group.
