Eivind Engebretsen

I am a medical humanities scholar and a professor of interdisciplinary health science at the University of Oslo (UiO).  From 2023, I am the Dean of the Open Campus at the European University Alliance Circle U. I am the founding head of the Sustainable Health Unit (SUSTAINIT) at the Faculty of Medicine (UiO) and its associated Centre for Sustainable Healthcare Education (SHE), a Centre of Excellence in Education funded for 5+5 years.

My research explores how knowledge about health, especially global health, is produced, legitimized, negotiated, documented, and exchanged throughout the global social fabric.
