Dialogue meeting on frameworks, responsibilities and further development

King's View/Beitostølen Health Sports Center

Astrid Nyquist - director Beitostølen Health Sports Center, Bent High - Chairman of the Board of Directors of Beitostølen Health Sports Center, Martin Feiring Sletten - Secretary General of the Ridderrennet Association

The starting point for the dialogue meeting is how rights, participation and mastery can be realized in practice throughout the life course. Experiences that many recognize, including from Team Pølsa , show how opportunities are shaped in the encounter between individual prerequisites, community frameworks and expectations of participation. With this as a backdrop, politicians, school owners (political and administrative management), professional communities, organizations and users gather for an open conversation about responsibility, room for action and choice of direction - and about more predictable and inclusive solutions over time.
