When? Monday 13 June at 1200-1300 on the lawn behind the main building at Gløshaugen.

Why? After repeated and dramatic cuts in funding for research infrastructure, construction projects, student grants, projects funded through the Research Council and the continuation of the ABE cuts, Forskerforbundet and the other unions at NTNU believe that enough is enough – research and education need long-term.

We want to spend an hour of the working day to mark this with appeals from, among others, May-Britt Moser, the students and Forskerforbundet. Together we will show that research and education are important for the future of Norway.

We encourage you to stop working and join the event to send a clear signal to the government.

Foraging course with DION (Trondheim)

Malene / / Events, Trondheim

DION would like to invite you to a foraging course!

In the pristine Norwegian forest, there is so much to experience. Despite the fact that we like to explore nature, we do not fully understand the fragility and exciting life of the different ecosystems. Most people have very limited knowledge about mushrooms, edible plants, seaweed, and sustainable harvesting.

Through a lecture and a tour by an expert from Boreal Forest you will increase your knowledge about sustainable and safe foraging. There are two dates you can attend the course. Please sign up only for one of these dates.

The price is 350 NOK (The original course price is 450 NOK, DION will pay 100 NOK for you!).

The number of places is limited: 30 participants, 15 for each course, so hurry up! 

Registration is open until Wednesday (18th of May) at 10am.

4th of June (Saturday) 10.00 – 12.30
