Nyere studie fra Island afslører, at mange turister trodser gentagne advarselsskilte, når de besøger seværdigheder. Vi føler os usårlige, når vi er på ferie, og vi vil gerne have den perfekte selfie, lyder en af forklaringerne fra forsker bag undersøgelsen.
Bengt Sundelius är ordförande i kommittén i NordForsks forskningsinitiativ om samhällssäkerhet. Vi har bett honom belysa några av de utmaningar som Norden står inför just nu.
Samfundssikkerhed står højt på den politiske dagsorden i alle de nordiske lande, men det er naivt at tegne et billede af et helt ens Norden, siger forfatterne bag nylig udkommet bog
Often there are areas on the outskirts of a country where emergency response is rudimentary, located far from major cities and where critical infrastructure is vulnerable to these types of events. This is first and foremost untenable/indefensible for the citizens; however, authorities with emergency management responsibility need new methods in order to support the communities in their own efforts to build capacity, since the fire and rescue services do not necessarily have the capacity to carry out search and rescue operations as they are expected to in the future. One of the many challenges, besides the violent and devastating events themselves, is that the areas can also be threatened with relocation if the locals are unable to cope with the rising threats of climate change – this is critical for the Nordic societies in general.
The central aim of this project is to develop recommendations for resilient governance mechanisms for health cyberspace that can meet social expectations regarding the security and privacy of health data, while enabling broad use of health data to benefit society.
A new call for funding is available for collaborative research projects on Nordic societal security in light of the emerging global and regional trends. The total amount of funding available for this Nordic call is set at NOK 44 million and the deadline for the submissions is 20 November 2019.
Nordisk samfundssikkerhed i lyset af regionale og globale tendenser var overskriften for det opslag, som indbragte 28 ansøgninger. Fire af projekterne er nu blevet udvalgt, og det totale budget er på 44 millioner norske kroner.
