Day 2 of #FOHN22 kicking off! @hannhkarina introducing @essijouh's keynote on memories of childhood.

@SZembrzycki Thank you!!!

The day is drawing to a close and we are about to hear the day’s second keynote lecture (this time via Zoom) by @SZembrzycki titled “Chasing Cancer in Canada’s Nickel Capital”. #FOHN22

On at the same time we have the panel “Borderlands under stress”, which explores the current situation in the borderlands between the Finnish-Russian borderlands in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic and the political turmoil caused by the war in Ukraine.

We’re now on to our first set of parallel sessions. The panel “Gender and Feminism in Oral History Research” has begun with @UAlberta Assoc Prof Sarah Nickel’s paper on indigenous community-engaged research. #FOHN22
