Freedom of expression and notification about censurable conditions - where do we draw the line between critical statements and raising concerns?

November 18 2021

The Fritt Ord Foundation and Fafo invite the public to the presentation of new research findings and a debate from 10-11.30 a.m. on Tuesday, 30 November. The event will take place at the Fritt Ord Foundation’s premises at Uranienborgveien 2, in Oslo.

Tormod Tingstad and Kjersti Løken Stavrum
Meet Tormod Tingstad, who was at the very heart of the biggest corruption case in Norwegian history and is now a defence attorney in white collar crime cases, and Kjersti Løken Stavrum, chair of the Freedom of Expression Commission.

This event is open to the public.

We will hear input and comments from Vidar Strømme, a senior adviser at the Norwegian National Human Rights Institution, Kurt Weltzien, an attorney for the Confederation of Norwegian Business and Industry, and Solfrid Vaage Haukaas, an attorney for the Norwegian Association of Local and Regional Authorities.

Sissel Trygstad will present new research findings and Anne Mette Ødegaard will be the moderator; both are researchers at Fafo. Welcome by Grethe Brochmann, chair of the Fritt Ord Foundation Board.
