| What happens when conflicts somewhere in the world move into Norwegian politics? In this episode of the podcast series "Noen har snakket sammen" [Someone has talked to each other], we talk about diaspora groups in Norway. About exiled Iranians, Kurds, Ukrainians, and others who are both part of Norwegian society and at the same time have strong ties to their home countries. PRIO researcher Marta Bivand Erdal and Agenda advisor Sylo Taraku discuss how diaspora can be a resource for Norwegian foreign policy, but how diaspora groups also illuminate dilemmas related to security, influence, and trust. And: How do you avoid making people with international ties feel suspected? And can Norway become better at using the competence and perspectives that exist in diaspora communities? |
