Karoline Daugstad

About

From 2024 and until 2031 I am director for NTNU Strategic Research Area 'Community'. I am professor in social geography with landscape geography as a focus area. My research interests cover landscape policies and management, natural resource management, cultural heritage, mountain farming, and agriculture and climate change. My research has mainly taken place in a Norwegian context but I have also undertaken studies in mountain communities in Austria and northern Spain, and I cooperate with Danish colleagues on the topic agriculture and climate change. My teaching has covered qualitative methods, courses focussing on landscape and natural resource management, and in addition more generic disciplinary topics. I have been department head for a period of four years as well as vice-dean for research for four years.
