Research and development

Scientific research in relevant fields is one of ARKIVET’s important objectives, and the center has been designated as a research organization by the Research Council of Norway. As a peace and human rights center, the development of new knowledge that better equips us to understand the past and make informed choices for the future is central to our mission.

Key Research Areas for ARKIVET Peace and Human Rights Center:

• War sailors in war and peace
• Prisoner history and ARKIVET as a memorial site
• Prevention of radicalization and violent extremism
• Democratic citizenship in the past, present, and future
