JEMO: Jewish Memory, Migration and Mobility
Knowledge of Norway´s national minorities is a key element of the LK20 curriculum and Norwegian educational policy. By focusing on Norwegian-Jewish migration history and cultural heritage, JEMO will enhance teachers´ disciplinary and pedagogical content knowledge in this field. Increasing the visibility of the past and present experiences of national minorities also represents an important contribution to education for democracy.
About us
The research group seeks to promote national and international research collaboration in the study of Norwegian-Jewish history and cultural heritage, with a particular emphasis on migration and integration. Through interdisciplinary and didactic approaches, JEMO also aims to foster collaboration that strengthen the knowledge base concerning Norway’s national minorities. The group has already established an active network with university-based research environments across Scandinavia and the Baltic region and is an integral part of the cross-faculty research project Negotiating Community: Norwegian-Jewish Life and the Wider Society, funded by NTNU Community for the period 2025–2029: Negotiating Community.
