Why is women's health given lower priority?

FpU invites you to a lecture and debate on women's health.

Tuesday, 13 October 2026 · 12:15–13:30Universitetsbiblioteket, Ullandhaug

Free eventPrice not specified

Some health issues are investigated, while others are dismissed. Women encounter a healthcare system marked by a lack of knowledge, endless waiting times, and a shortage of effective treatment options. Why is women’s health still being deprioritized, and what is the true cost to our society?

These are the questions we hope to answer when young politicians from FpU, AUF, SU and Unge Høyre meet for a panel discussion. How will the different parties prioritize and address the health crisis facing women?

Before the debate itself, we invite you to an expert introduction to women’s health and the significance of this issue for society. Youth politician Iselina Bolme will provide a brief overview of recent research in the field, before lawyer and politician Kristin Lode places women’s health in a broader social and political context.

Panelists:
FpU: Hanne Frøyland
AUF: Hannah Owe Hope
SU: Lene Sander Christensen
Unge Høyre: Nora G. Høyer
Do you have any questions or personal experiences you would like to raise? The floor will be opened for questions both after the presentation and toward the end of the debate. This is your chance to challenge the politicians directly and get answers to your questions.

The event is free and open to everyone—both students and other interested participants. We hope to see you there!
