Welcome to the second breakfast seminar in the series «PSYOPS: The Psychology of Political Struggle».
Among the topics is how we can look at migration issues in a larger context, and treatment of refugees who have been subjected to torture. The major refugee crisis in recent times makes this a very topical and important theme.
PSYOPS is a collaboration between the Peace Research Institute Oslo (PRIO) and Psychology Students without Borders Oslo (PUG Oslo), with focus on current topics in the borderland between psychology and politics.
