Our Struggle conference in Sortland

08 October 2021

Our Struggle conference in Sortland 30 September gathered almost 400 youths to experience forum theater played by Dragner & Drottner in the old cinema in Sortland!

After the performance, they were divided into groups. Where among other things, through a democratic process, they made new lyrics to the labour song “The Post of Freedom”. The song was performed by actors, teachers and students at the end of the conference.

Our Struggle conference in Sortland is supported by: the Research Days, The Norwegian Cultural Centre, the Kronstein Group, the Cultural School Bag Sortland, #LOiVesterålen and friends of kulturfabrikken. Thank you all so much!
