Looking forward to attending my first Diversify Nordics Summit on the 27th of September in Oslo. I'll be facilitating this panel with three fantastic participants: Whose Story is it Anyway? Reclaiming Mainstream Narratives. Participants: Anne Lajla Utsi, Ritika Wadhwa and Henri Terho. "The discussion that follows will challenge us to confront the power dynamics that shape whose voices are amplified and whose stories are silenced. In a world where narrative sovereignty is increasingly contested, we must ask: Who controls the stories that define our culture, history, and future, and what are the consequences of this control? As narratives around critical issues like the energy transition are crafted, whose perspectives are being highlighted, and whose are overlooked? This discussion will explore the intersection of activism and artivism, questioning how the stories that drive social and environmental change are selected and who benefits from their telling. Moreover, the conversation will explore the often-hidden power structures behind storytelling—who receives the funding and resources to tell their stories, and how does this influence which narratives become mainstream? In a media landscape dominated by gatekeepers, how can marginalized voices reclaim their narratives and challenge the status quo? This panel pushes us to examine the role of power in storytelling, asking whether true narrative sovereignty is possible in a system where economic and political interests often dictate whose stories are told and heard."
📢 Announcing our next speaker for Diversify Nordics Summit (DNS) 2024: @Julie Forchhammar (She/Her), Co-founder of Klimakultur 🎤✨ Julie Forchhammer is the co-founder of Klimakultur, a Norwegian non-profit founded in 2021 in the mountains in Vang in Valdres. Klimakultur mobilizes the culture sector on how to take action on climate change and implement climate justice. Working in Norway where the fossil fuel industry is present in every aspect of society, Julie is passionate about using the art and culture sector to create spaces for reflections on topics that are often not that easily discussed here. As she says: “The fossil fuel industry are masters of PR, with unlimited resources to influence the public debate and delay climate action. Artists and culture workers may not always be well financed but we also have one unlimited and renewable resource: The power to be brave and tell the truth.” Join us to listen to Julie and our other speakers on September 27, 2024, in the heart of Oslo. 🎟️Book your tickets here: https://lnkd.in/e-Z5Q9CD 💡You can check our list of speakers on our website: https://lnkd.in/dugTHT74 Corporate Partners: Amazon Web Services (AWS),EY, Google, Expedia Group, Berlitz Norway, Alda, HiBob, The Coca-Cola Company Norway Collaboration Partners: deidei, RFSL utbildning, WomenTechIceland, Oslo Innovation Week, Oslo Business Region, Nordic Women in Tech Awards, Klimakultur, Iceland Innovation Week, Welcome to Oslo- Oslo kommune Supported by Robert Bosch Stiftung, Centric Advisory, Ada Ventures, BMW Foundation Herbert Quandt #DiversifyNordics #Conference #Diversify #Leadership #Sustainability #Inclusion #PeopleAndCulture
