• Report: Experiences with conversion therapy among queer people

Nordland Research Institute is conducting a research project on behalf of the Norwegian Directorate of Children, Youth and Family Affairs entitled "Experiences with conversion therapy among queers".

To gain a nuanced understanding of this topic, we will go broad and gather different types of experience-based knowledge about being queer and religious in a Norwegian context. The project will conduct both qualitative interviews and a survey.
