About the research group Research in Education & Movement culture
The research group for Research in Education & Movement Culture, REMO, is an interdisciplinary research group.
Purpose
The activities in the research group are conducted in line with GIH's research profile "People in Motion" from a salutogenic perspective of health. The group constitutes a collegial context working together to strengthen the department's research environment in order to deepen the quality and increase the scope of the research.
The group supports education and professional development, organizes research seminars, and continuously reviews the quality of research and research applications. We also lead a number of externally funded projects, collaborate with several actors in society and are active in three national graduate schools for Ph.D. students.
