The Nordic countries have a strong theoretical and practice tradition of cultural-historical approaches to investigating and\/or intervening human practices and everyday life.

The 7<\/span><\/span><\/span>th<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/sup> Nordic conference provides a cross-disciplinary forum for exchanging ideas, exploring common interests, addressing various theoretical, practice-related, and societal issues, as well as for establishing new possibilities for collaboration among researchers and practitioners who share an interest in cultural-historical approaches.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Transformations of human life conditions (e.g. new technologies, new public management, or migration) create ongoing need for cultural-historical research and professional practices. Contributions from these perspectives are important for future societies as they both contribute with reflections on societal issues and with theoretical, methodological, and practical advancements <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The conference invites those who work within such areas as research of education, human learning, development, new technologies, work practices and organizational transformations, health practice and social work to confront these issues. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
