Background
Swedish healthcare is not provided on equal terms to everyone, despite good intentions to do so. We want to problematize this issue through the seminar series by discussing norms related to care. The seminar series will have an interdisciplinary subject content to highlight norm-conscious perspectives in health and medical care. Discussing and problematizing equal care is important both within the framework of healthcare education and for healthcare. In addition, the concept is important for conducting more inclusive research, regarding all parts of the research process. The seminar series is aimed at doctoral students and post-docs.
Purpose
The purpose of the seminar series is to problematize and discuss the concept of equal care linked to social categorization of various kinds as well as care norms from different perspectives. Questions about equal conditions will also be raised.
Method
Four occasions (two VT24 and 2 HT24) with digital lectures/presentations and subsequent discussions/dialogue on the day’s topic. Seminar language can be English and Swedish. Participants are expected to be prepared for each occasion.
Results
After the seminar series, the doctoral student/postdoctoral researcher should be able to: -problematize and discuss the concept of equal care -relate and analyze the concept of equal care linked to their own research.
