Det fysiska arvet från institutet består av omkring 12000 foton, av vilka majoriteten är på samer, samt brev, dokument och mätningar av människor. På Uppsala universitet, och på många andra statliga institutioner i Sverige finns mänskliga kvarlevor av samer. Placerat på Centrum för mångvetenskaplig forskning om rasism, CEMFOR, Uppsala universitet, har projektet ”komma hem” ambitionen att just föra ”hem” samiska kulturella artefakter och mänskliga kvarlevor, samtidigt som man utforskar hur samiska samhället och individer kan relatera till (im)materiella minnen, med stöd av akademisk forskning och praktik samt med utveckling av forskningsetik för att innefatta urfolksperspektiv – samiska perspektiv. Det är en omfattande vändning bort från (internaliserad) kolonialism, till möjligheten för samer att inte längre vara ”den Andre” utan istället komma hem, vara hemma. Lett av en samisk /urfolksforskare är detta ett supradisciplinärt projekt i samverkan med det samiska civilsamhället, som arbetar kollaborativt och aktionsinriktat. Kunskapsteoretisk och metodologisk grund hämtas inom Teknik- och vetenskapshistoria, Feministisk teknovetenskap, Rasismforskning, Urfolksstudier, och samarbetar med samiska organisationer, individer, konstnärer och aktivister, samt policyskapare, samt söker även engagera personer inom de statliga institutioner där samiska mänskliga kvarlevor och kulturella artefakter nu förvaras. Det är inte endast samer som är i behov av att ”komma hem”, arvet av rasbiologin har omfattande negativ påverkan på majoritetssamhället och blicken behöver vändas, etik, värden och goda relationer behöver lyftas fram.","en":"2022 marks a century since the State institute for racial biology opened. The physical legacy of the institute consists of 12000 photos, of which the majority are of Sámi, and documents with measurements of Sámi bodies. At Uppsala U, and at other state institutions, human remains of Sámi are kept in boxes. Sámi cultural artefacts, drums and seite,  ared stored at institutions in Sweden and abroad. Placed at the Centre for Multidisciplinary research on racism, Cemfor, at Uppsala Univ, sijddaj máhttsamin - coming home - revolves around the ambition to bring “home” Sámi cultural artefacts and human remains while exploring how Sámi communities and individuals can relate to (im)material memories of colonisation, through academic research and practice along with the development of research ethics built on Indigenous – Sámi perspectives. It is a major turn to wrestle out of (internalized) colonialism, of the potential for Sámi to no longer be the Other, but instead being at home. Led by a Sámi scholar this is a supradisciplinary project working collaborative and action oriented with the civil society. Epistemological and methodological bases are within History of science and technology; Feminist Technoscience; Racism Studies, Indigenous Studies and methodologies and collaborates with Sámi organisations, individuals, artists and activists and policy makers, as well as with the institutions concerned. "},"project_id":"2021-03080_VR","identifier_short":"2021-03080","dates":{"start_date":"2021-12-01","end_date":"2025-11-30"},"organizations":[{"funding":[{"_id":2,"id":"202100-5208","sv":"Vetenskapsrådet","en":"Swedish Research Council"}]},{"coordinating":[{"_id":978,"id":"202100-2932","sv":"Uppsala universitet","en":"Uppsala University"}]}],"people":[{"project_leaders":[{"_id":"authority-person:15577","orcid":"0000-0003-2820-0584","name":"Öhman, May-Britt","role":"principal_investigator","affiliation":[{"_id":978,"id":"202100-2932","sv":"Uppsala universitet","en":"Uppsala University"}]}]},{"other_personnel":[{"name":"TallBear, Kimberly","affiliation":[{"_id":978,"id":"202100-2932","sv":"Uppsala universitet","en":"Uppsala University"}]}]}],"tags":[{"_id":11767,"id":"50901","sv":"Tvärvetenskapliga studier","en":"Social Sciences Interdisciplinary"},{"_id":11775,"id":"60102","sv":"Teknikhistoria","en":"History of Technology"},{"_id":11803,"id":"60599","sv":"Övrig annan humaniora","en":"Other Humanities not elsewhere specified"}],"titles":{"sv":"sijddaj máhttsat betyder \"kommer hem\" på lulesamiska","en":"sijddaj máhttsat means \"coming home\" in Lule Sámi"},"total_funding":"6120000","type_of_awards":{"sv":"Projektbidrag","en":"Project grant"},"publications":[{"id":"diva2:2048733","type":"report","issued":{"date-parts":[[2026]]},"title":"ICARP IV Research Priority Team (RPT) 5.

It recognizes that scientific excellence in the Arctic must emerge from relationships, where Indigenous laws, governance and knowledge systems shape research questions, methods and outcomes.Co-production is not a checklist or afterthought. It is a practice of being in relation, grounded in trust, reciprocity and long-term commitments to the well-being of Peoples and places. It honours and upholds mutual respect and responsibility in Actionable outcomes through all aspects of research.We begin with a vision.As Indigenous scholars, educators, knowledge keepers, and allied community members and academics, we are not simply responding to research frameworks and paradigms, we are reshaping and creating them.Guided by our respective self-determining practices, laws, languages, and ways of knowing, we assert that:• As part of their self-determination, Indigenous Peoples have the right to their own knowledge creation and participate in sharing and creating knowledge as they deem appropriate.• Indigenous Peoples are Rightsholders.• Indigenous governance in knowledge production is non-negotiable.• Data sovereignty and ethical research practices are essential.• Research must lead to tangible, community-directed outcomes.• Indigenous Knowledge systems must shape, not just inform, Arctic research.Indigenous Peoples have sovereign authority and inherent expertise to generate knowledge, fundamentally shaping epistemologies and research paradigms. Their knowledge systems are dynamic, authoritative, and central to understanding and addressing complex Arctic realities and building Arctic futures. Indigenous Knowledge is a powerful, legitimate and indispensable source of insight and innovation. Indigenous-led research is rooted in generations of wisdom that stems from a deep understanding of the Land.ICARP IV is a forum for scientific priorities, including a place where science and Indigenous Peoples meet, reclaim space and redefine knowledge. This report asserts that true co-production of knowledge at most research tables requires Indigenous leadership at every level—defining priorities, leading methodologies, owning data, and determining the outcomes. ICARP IV is a call to action: to reimagine Indigenous research inclusion as an act of humanity, Indigenous sovereignty and to ensure that knowledge co-production reflects the futures Indigenous people are building. Indigenous Peoples are continually pushed into systems that often do not align with our knowledge, responsibilities, or ways of being. We assert inherent authority within our systems of knowledge as knowledge holders and protectors while carrying responsibilities to safeguard, regenerate, and rearticulate our ways of knowing. We establish this through continuity and relational accountability to both our knowledge systems and Western knowledge.Successful implementation of ICARP IV’s recommendations will transform the Arctic research space in the following ways:1.  Strengthen and broaden dedicated funding for Indigenous-driven research.  Strengthened and expanded funding streams are set aside specifically for Indigenous-driven research, with Indigenous organizations, governments, and communities in the lead as applicants and decision-makers. These funds support projects where Arctic Indigenous Peoples define the questions, methods, partnerships, and timelines. For example, a regional Indigenous government could receive multi-year funding to run its own research office, hire community researchers, and commission studies on language revitalization, land use, climate adaptation, or youth well-being that respond directly to local priorities. Funding rules, reporting requirements, and evaluation criteria are redesigned so that community benefits, cultural safety, and knowledge sovereignty matter as much as academic publications.2.  Community-defined priorities at the center of Arctic research.  Arctic research prioritizes projects that clearly and directly address needs, concerns, and aspirations identified by Arctic communities, including moral, cultural, and ethical dimensions. This means that research proposals must show how they were developed with communities, how they respond to community-identified issues, and how the work will uphold local values and protocols. For example, a health study might be funded only if it emerges from a community-led process that identifies specific mental health concerns related to colonial trauma, and if the project’s methods are guided by Elders, local healers, and community ethics guidelines. Similarly, wildlife research might proceed only when it respects harvesting practices, sacred areas, and community decision-making, and includes clear plans for sharing results in local languages and formats that are meaningful and useful to the people most affected.3.  Bridging, Weaving, Creating Knowledge that is Deeply Co-Productive. Bridging, braiding, weaving, and creating deeply co-productive knowledge are everyday, expected practices in Arctic research. They are not just exceptions. For example, a sea-ice study might combine satellite data with Inupiat or Inuit ice terminology and travel stories, with Elders and hunters named as co-authors and co-leads, rather than “participants.” Researchers routinely plan projects so that Indigenous and Western knowledge systems are in genuine partnership from the start. For instance, monitoring programs may be designed in community workshops, where Indigenous Knowledge holders decide which indicators matter (like animal behavior or shorefast ice changes) alongside scientists’ measurements.4.  Critical research as healing (decolonizing) work.  Critical research activities inside the research system are used deliberately to challenge, change, and heal from colonial practices. For example, universities and research institutes may run regular internal reviews that examine who gets funding, who is cited, whose knowledge is valued, and then change their policies when they find bias. These activities might include ethics board reforms, mandatory anti-colonial training for reviewers, and audits of data ownership that lead to shifting control of data back to Indigenous organizations. In this way, “research about research” becomes a tool for accountability and repair, not just an academic exercise.5.  Decolonized research spaces.  Decolonizing research spaces allows Arctic Indigenous scholars and others to fully participate in research while staying rooted in their home communities and responsibilities. For example, an Indigenous PhD student might be able to join seminars online from their community, have fieldwork count as core research time, and schedule academic deadlines around hunting seasons or cultural obligations.Institutions adapt policies, funding, and infrastructure so that Indigenous scholars do not have to leave their language, land, or community relationships behind to succeed. This can look like community-based research hubs, flexible residency requirements, and hiring practices that recognize community leadership and land-based expertise as scholarly excellence.","ISBN":"978-9935-583-08-6","DOI":"10.33112/FRFO4646","NBN":"urn:nbn:se:uu:diva-583126","number-of-pages":"39","keyword":"Indigenous Peoples; Decolonizing Science and Education; Sámi; First Nation; Arctic","publisher":"The International Arctic Science Committee (IASC)","note":"","published":[{"raw":"2026-03-25T20:21:00.000+01:00"}],"created":[{"raw":"2026-03-25T20:21:09.092+01:00"}],"updated":[{"raw":"2026-04-10T10:45:37.016+02:00"}],"URL":"https://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:uu:diva-583126"},{"id":"diva2:2047641","type":"chapter","issued":{"date-parts":[[2026]]},"title":"Lule älv : samiska perspektiv på etnosvensk tekniknationalism och vattenkraftexploateringar","language":"swe","author":[{"family":"Öhman","given":"May-Britt","ORCID":"0000-0003-2820-0584","localId":"mayoh345","affiliation":[{"id":"877450","name":"Uppsala universitet, Centrum för mångvetenskaplig forskning om rasism (CFR)"}]}],"abstract":"Utifrån Lule älv som fallstudie, med samiska erfarenheter och perspektiv som utgångspunkt, belyser kapitlet vattenkraftutbyggnaden, dess förutsättningar och konsekvenser, samt även ifrågasättanden och kampen för hållbarhet och för samisk kultur, tradition och historia.

The exhibited work explores the complex layering of extractive cultures in the European Arctic and sub-Arctic environments, questioning whether the rhetoric of the “smart city” can genuinely deliver sustainability in the periphery of extractive economies –where deeply rooted development patterns continue to dominate. At the core of the project lies the tension between technologically advanced iron ore production in mining towns and the ancestral “intelligences” of Indigenous communities living in these regions (Sweden, Norway, Finland, and eastern Russia).The current model of Arctic urban development, driven by extractivism and masked by smart city ambitions, is reshaping territorial and social structures. In contrast, Indigenous knowledge, such as Sámi reindeer herding or traditional Arctic river fishing practices, offer alternative, rural, and dispersed approaches to sustainability that challenge centralized, industrial models and may hold new appeal for contemporary inhabitation. This evolution in extractive culture reveals how advanced digital systems are altering human interaction with land, generating both conflict and unexpected intersections. These transformations can be understood through the lens of assemblage, a dynamic juxtaposition of elements and systems that are often distant or seemingly incompatible: automation and ancestral knowledge, industrial infrastructures and fragile ecosystems, remote sensing and embodied traditions.","ISBN":"9789180489133","NBN":"urn:nbn:se:uu:diva-580944","page":"52-66","container-title":"Towards an Arctic Assemblage","keyword":"Indigenous Peoples; Decolonizing Science and Education; Sámi; Architecture; Dams; Mines","publisher-place":"Luleå","publisher":"Luleå University of Technology","note":"[ed] Tornieri, Stefano; Rizzo, Agatino","published":[{"raw":"2026-02-27T23:39:00.000+01:00"}],"created":[{"raw":"2026-02-27T23:39:17.113+01:00"}],"updated":[{"raw":"2026-03-03T15:39:18.805+01:00"}],"URL":"https://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:uu:diva-580944"},{"id":"diva2:2002032","type":"book","issued":{"date-parts":[[2025]]},"title":"SING Sábme 2025 Workshop Questioning “Green Energy” and its Impact on Indigenous Livelihoods in Sweden, August 11-15, 2025.","language":"eng","author":[{"family":"Öhman","given":"May-Britt","ORCID":"0000-0003-2820-0584","localId":"mayoh345","affiliation":[{"id":"877450","name":"Uppsala universitet, Centrum för mångvetenskaplig forskning om rasism (CFR)"},{"id":"1267","name":"Uppsala universitet, Teologiska institutionen"}]}],"contributor":[{"family":"Andersson","given":"Hampus","affiliation":[{"name":"Gällivare Forest Sami Village, Flakaberg group"}]},{"family":"Andersson","given":"Henrik"},{"family":"Eriksson","given":"Elle"},{"family":"Eriksson","given":"Michael"},{"family":"Eriksson","given":"Tina"},{"family":"Cardinal-McTeague","given":"Warren"},{"family":"Howlett","given":"Tracy"},{"family":"Helsdotter","given":"Eva Charlotta","ORCID":"0000-0001-9504-0723","localId":"evahe519","affiliation":[{"id":"877450","name":"Uppsala universitet, Centrum för mångvetenskaplig forskning om rasism (CFR)"},{"id":"1267","name":"Uppsala universitet, Teologiska institutionen"}]},{"family":"TallBear","given":"Kim","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Alberta, Faculty of Native Studies"}]}],"abstract":"SING Sábme 2025 WorkshopQuestioning “Green Energy” and its Impact on Indigenous Livelihoods in SwedenSING Sábme and the 2025 workshop is a collaboration between Uppsala University’s Centre for Multidisciplinary Studies on Racism (CEMFOR), the Faculty of Native Studies at the University of Alberta, the University of British Columbia’s Department of Forest and Conservation Sciences, and local Sámi community members and experts.

We will travel to the Gällivare Forest Sámi territories, where Sámi livelihoods and the so-called ”green” industry intersect. A key concern for local reindeer herders is the impact of wind and hydroelectric power development on reindeer habitat – a habitat already impacted by forestry and mining activities. Using methods developed by the SING program, we will coach youth in the region to think critically and engage creatively with scientific approaches in genomics and environmental monitoring so that they can help the Sámi community understand their territory in even greater detail.The 2025 workshop will provide hands-on, place-based education in Sámi cultural practices and practical and technical skill-building in environmental genomics approaches. It will be supplemented by learning sessions that introduce a critical and ethical framework for considering Indigenous science and educational approaches. Participants will be able to learn about and discuss genomics, ethics, feminist technoscience, water security, and colonization from Indigenous, feminist, and 2S/queer-inclusive perspectives.Funded by  ⴰⵔⵔⴰⵎⴰⵜ Ărramăt: Strengthening Health And Wellbeing Through Indigenous-Led Conservation and Sustainable Relationships With Biodiversity https://arramatproject.org/ (Government of Canada's New Frontiers in Research Fund (NFRF), [NFRFT-2020-00188]; Genome Canada; FORMAS, Vetenskapsrådet ","NBN":"urn:nbn:se:uu:diva-568189","keyword":"Sámi; Indigenous; Technoscience; Decolonizing Science;","published":[{"raw":"2025-09-29T14:11:49.943+02:00"}],"created":[{"raw":"2025-09-29T14:11:50.010+02:00"}],"updated":[{"raw":"2025-12-11T19:59:25.589+01:00"}],"URL":"https://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:uu:diva-568189"},{"id":"diva2:2033304","type":"book","issued":{"date-parts":[[2025]]},"title":"Toward the restoration of Indigenous land and life through SING - the Summer Internship for INdigenous Peoples in Genomics SING Sábme - Sámi territories","language":"eng","author":[{"family":"Öhman","given":"May-Britt","ORCID":"0000-0003-2820-0584","localId":"mayoh345","affiliation":[{"id":"877450","name":"Uppsala universitet, Centrum för mångvetenskaplig forskning om rasism (CFR)"},{"id":"1267","name":"Uppsala universitet, Teologiska institutionen"},{"name":"Arramat Pathway T5 Decolonizing Science and Education "}]},{"family":"TallBear","given":"Kim","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Minnesota, American Indian Studies"}]},{"family":"Cardinal-McTeague","given":"Warren","affiliation":[{"name":"University of British Columbia, Dept of Forest and Conservation Sciences"}]},{"family":"Nelson","given":"Elizabeth A.","affiliation":[{"name":"Metagenomics Laboratory for ancient and modern DNA, Southern Methodist University, Texas"}]},{"family":"Andersson","given":"Hampus","affiliation":[{"name":"Gällivare Forest Sami Village, Flakaberg group"}]},{"family":"Andersson","given":"Henrik","affiliation":[{"name":"Gällivare Forest Sami Village, Flakaberg group"}]},{"family":"Eriksson","given":"Tina","affiliation":[{"name":"Gällivare Forest Sami Village, Flakaberg group"}]},{"family":"Årsjok","given":"Guttorm","affiliation":[{"name":"Gällivare Forest Sami Village, Flakaberg group"}]},{"family":"Eriksson","given":"Elle","affiliation":[{"name":"Gällivare Forest Sami Village, Flakaberg group/ SLU, Umeå"}]},{"family":"Tuvshinjargal","given":"Batzorig","localId":"battu407","affiliation":[{"id":"884800","name":"Uppsala universitet, CEMUS"}]},{"family":"Smallboy","given":"Jacob","affiliation":[{"name":"UBC"}]}],"abstract":"The Arramat Global Transformation Pathway 5 (T5)  Decolonizing Science and Education aims to build a network and create a space toaddress the challenges and opportunities for Indigenous-led science,technology, and society research and education.Within this framework, we aim to organize a series of webinars that willbe recorded and published as vodcasts - to highlight projects and workthat are actively promoting the decolonization of science and education. We welcome you to join our very first webinar on December 15,2025, 6-7.30 PM Central European Time.

In Sámi communities in Sweden, traditional mapping has reduced their complex landscapes to mere grazing areas, neglecting essential cultural practices. This perspective has guided land use planning, facilitated extractive ventures such as large-scale mining while displacing Sámi and severely disadvantaging Sámi livelihoods. This chapter presents a case study on the Swedish side of Sábme with a feminist and supradisciplinary approach that incorporates Sámi Indigenous Methodologies in co-production with a Lule Sámi family (a “sijdda”).

(Scandinavian traveler, April 2017)Over the last decades, due to active mobilization and agency, Indigenous peoples have received increased attention as sustainability-oriented entrepreneurs. Indigenous peoples are recognized as having land-based livelihood practices and unique cultural practices, and possess expertise and knowledge, commonly referred to as traditional knowledge, relevant to the management of lands and waters, nature conservation and environmental sustainability, and there is a growing scholarship within organization and management studies acknowledging Indigenous expertise (Love, 2020; Scheyvens et al, 2017; Reinert, 2006; Cutcher and Dale, 2022; Dana, 2015)Documented as a distinct people for two millennia, the Indigenous Sámi live across the Fennoscandian Peninsula in Northern Europe – crossing the borders of the colonial states of Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russi (Ojala, 2009, 83). For the Sámi people, knowledge, expertise and views on lands and waters, as well as relationships with non-humans are expressed in everyday life, through language passed on from generation to generation (Dana 2015; Magga, 2006; Jernsletten, 1997; Labba, 2015) and in contemporary policy documents, such as the Sámi Parliament Environmental program, adopted 2009 (Sametinget 2021).Reindeer husbandry is a central part of the Sami entrepreneurship, it is also one of several central traditional livelihoods, performed by over 24 Indigenous peoples in the Circumpolar North region (Mathiesen, 2023; Fjellström et al, 2020); providing food, being the basis for community organization, and a foundation for cultural and economic activities (Magga, 2006; Bastien et al 2022, Labba, 2015).Within Sweden, reindeer husbandry areas take place on around 50% of the Swedish territory. The reindeer husbandry is semi nomadic and depends on access to lands and waters, i.e. natural pastures, thereby radically different from agricultural husbandry, where the animals are fed (Dana 2015; Labba, 2015) The access to grazing lands, the transportation in between different grazing lands, and the relationship with the surrounding society all form part of the prerequisites and the conditions the possibilities to plan and organize reindeer husbandry as entrepreneurship (Dana 2015; Labba, 2015; Bjärstig et al, 2020).Sámi entrepreneurship including the reindeer husbandry has become increasingly disrupted with the establishment of the modern nation states from the 15th-17th century (Lantto, 2010; Ojala and Nordin, 2019), and even more so during the 20th century, continuing with the expansion of renewable energy projects, mining, and infrastructure (Skarin and Åhman, 2014; Össbo, 2022).Today there is a discrepancy between legislation and actual situation (Bjärstig et al, 2020). Sámi culture and entrepreneurship, as well as access to lands linked to reindeer husbandry has specific protection within Swedish legislation, starting with the first reindeer husbandry act in 1886 (Brännström and Allard, 2021).More recently, the Sámi have been acknowledged as a people within the Swedish Constituton and thereby having the right to preserve and develop their cultural and social life, (SFS 2011:109, Ch.1, Art 2.)Still,reindeer herders encounter difficulties in performing their entrepreneurship, which is the core issue of this study.To understand the problems faced by the Sámi entrepreneurs, it is necessary to analyze them in view of the legacies of settler colonialism (Wolfe, Cutcher, L., &amp; Dale, K. (2022). Össbo, 2022)We apply Framing theory, for revealing insights about collective frames and alignment of frames in the context of colonial legacies affecting indigenous entrepreneurship. (Wilson &amp; Brazendale, 1973; Snow &amp; Bedford, 1988; Snow et al. 1986). The framework enables us to explore prerequisites and hurdles in Sami reindeer husbandry entrepreneurship in a context of adherence to culture and collective actions (Pan &amp; McLeod, 1991; Entman, 1993; Kuyper &amp; Vlek, 2004, Cutlip, Center &amp; Broom, 1995).It may reveal insights about social relationships and acquisition of critical resources. The frame articulation concept allows linking events, experiences, and beliefs in the framing processes. (Snow &amp; Benford, 1988, 1992; Evans 1997; Gamson, 1995; Klandermans, 1984).As such, our inductive study, based on semi-structured interviews, social media, diaries, enabled us to identify diagnostic, prognostic and motivational framing, outlining paradoxes and future potentials of Sami entrepreneurship.This paper makes several important contributions. First, we contribute to the literature about prerequisites and hurdles/ hindrances for indigenous entrepreneurship, specifically Sámi entrepreneurship in reindeer husbandry. We contribute to the analysis of pressure in entrepreneurship and how these impacts on organizational practice in Sami entrepreneurship. In this the settler colonialism is part of the historical pressure impact Indigenous entrepreneurship, applying a perspective of framing theory. We outline a pressure cooker model to visualize the various obstacles reported by Sami entrepreneurs and how these impact on organizational practice.","NBN":"urn:nbn:se:uu:diva-564243","container-title":"EGOS, the European Group for Organisational Studies, annual meeting, 2023, July 6-8, Cagliari : Sub-theme 55: Organizing for Multiculturalism: Between Conflict and Inclusion","event":"39th EGOS Colloquium, the European Group for Organisational Studies, annual meeting, 2023, July 6-8, Cagliari. ","keyword":"Entrepreneurship; Sámi; Reindeer herding; Sweden","publisher":"European Group for Organisational Studies","published":[{"raw":"2025-07-31T01:40:10.315+02:00"}],"created":[{"raw":"2025-07-31T01:40:10.382+02:00"}],"updated":[{"raw":"2025-08-04T12:25:05.203+02:00"}],"URL":"https://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:uu:diva-564243"},{"id":"diva2:1966727","type":"book","issued":{"date-parts":[[2023]]},"title":"Tal vid Minnesdag 2023 – svensk samepolitik får inte glömmas eller gömmas","language":"swe","author":[{"family":"Öhman","given":"May-Britt","ORCID":"0000-0003-2820-0584","localId":"mayoh345","affiliation":[{"id":"877450","name":"Uppsala universitet, Centrum för mångvetenskaplig forskning om rasism (CFR)"},{"id":"1267","name":"Uppsala universitet, Teologiska institutionen"}]}],"abstract":" May-Britt Öhman tal vid Minnesdagen 2023 Öhman, M.-B.

Data collection has been made of transient material from social media; through web enquiries, autoethnography and interviews while the pandemic was – and still is - an ongoing situation to provide for historical comparisons, future planning and development of human security, crisis management and resilience, and to plan for a larger research project. The project had five parallel work packages and revolves around the key concepts of anxiety, vulnerability, resilience, scientific uncertainty, human security, risk, security, health, well-being, based on the conditions of (sub)Arctic Norrbotten. In the presentation I will discuss the methodologies, the results, and some of my own experiences. Ungreen windpower: Sámi Indigenous and scientific perspectives on fossil dependent and environmentally destructive designsFilm 19:05’We wish to present and talk about the content of this film that concerns the future of our family, children and relatives, and the whole Forest Sámi existence in this area. In the film, Henrik Andersson, reindeer herder within Gällivare Forest Sámi village, Norrbotten County, Sweden,  speaks about the environmental destruction caused by the Swedish state, through forestry practices by the Swedish state owned forest company Sveaskog, as well as the planned wind energy industrial area by the Swedish state power company Vattenfall.  Associate Professor Eva Charlotta Helsdotter, Uppsala University, tells about  how the analysis of windpower is not taking into account all relevant aspects in terms of fossil dependency and environmental consequences. A large part of what is needed to establish, maintain, as well as decommission windpower is never taken into account within the so called LCA analyses. This is what makes it possibly to – falsely – claim that windpower is green. However, the windpower designs of today cannot be considered green, nor fossil free. The area in question is one out of two project areas for windpower within Gällivare Forest Sámi village -  “Storlandet”, which is the ancestral grounds of Henrik Andersson’s family. Work is currently ongoing with an environmental impact study, planned to be ready for submission in 2022. The film is produced by Dálkke, a research project and research group at Uppsala University,  within the Swedish National Research Programme on Climate, the Swedish research council FORMAS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vMq-Yah4RL0 Hampus Andersson When the climate apocalypse comes I’ll make it: 16 year old Hampus Andersson’s survival month living off the lands and waters in the forests of Norrbotten, SwedenFilm 18:55’ There is a lot of talk of crisis and apocalypse, due to war, to climate change. Young people worried about their future go on school strike and manifest, around the world. But, when the climate or any other crisis happens, how are these young (and adult) protesters prepared to fend for themselves? How long can you survive without electricity and water in the tap, with access to food in the supermarket? Thinking about all of this, 16 year old Hampus Andersson decided to try to live off the lands and waters for a full month, on his own. If there is such a crisis, would he make it on his own? From mid July to mid August 2019, the experiment went on. He made sure to learn from more experienced and older reindeer herders and others with experience from the forests. Hampus is not completely unaware on how to get access to food in the forest. His father is a Sámi reindeer herder, and his mother’s family are an agriculture family. But until this day he had never done such an experiment. How would he find food, water, shelter? What would be the hardest? Some things that he had never even thought about turned out to be harder than expected. During the stay Hampus documented his everyday life with photos and short films, and posted on his Facebook page and Instagram. This is a film made from those photos and videos, along with an interview by film maker Petri Storlöpare, Slowfilm AB. Hampus speaks of his experiences, thoughts and ideas on how to continue this experiment. Will he try the same in the Arctic winter, with temperatures down to minus 40 Celsius? The film project is part of Dálkke: Indigenous Climate Change Studies, led by Associate professor May-Britt Öhman, Centre for Multidisciplinary Studies on Racism, CEMFOR, Uppsala University.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AoQ79anZ0VA&amp;t=1s Henrik AnderssonWinds of Destruction - Hällberget, Överkalix – Dutch pension fund owned Vasavind ungreen windpower threatening Indigenous Sámi futures Film 23:55’ The Vasavind windpower company,  currently (May 2022) owned by the Dutch pension fund APG, was in January 2022 by the Swedish land and environment court granted the right to construct 57 200 meters tall windmills within the reindeer herding grounds of Gällivare forest sámi village, Flakaberg group.Windpower is massively promoted and financially supported by the Swedish state, the European Union, environmental organisations as part of what is commonly referred to as a\"green transition\", in the name of climate change mitigation. The Indigenous Sámi are thereby forced to pursue a struggle to protect lands and water and their reindeer herding grounds. Gällivare forest sámi village and the Flakaberg group are now in risk to have to give up their traditional culture, in spite declarations of rights of the indigenous peoples, UNDRIP. In this documentary, filmed in 2015, Henrik Andersson, reindeer herder is describing his perspective and expertise, on the planned establishment at a core area of the Flakaberg reindeer herding group, and how it will destroy the possibilities for the future of the Indigenous Sámi reindeer herding in this area.Meanwhile, the Dutch pension fund APG states on their website that they have a good future in sight: \"We are a pension provider that looks not only at financial returns, but also at doing our bit for society. In areas such as solidarity between generations, sustainability, values, diversity, the climate, and digitalization. Because pensions are ultimately about people, about life, and about living together in society. What good will a great pension do when the world around you has become unlivable?\"How can Sámi challenge the so called “green” transition in a more successful way? What is needed? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7ZylkDXxe8&amp;t=741s","NBN":"urn:nbn:se:uu:diva-582806","event":"Native American and Indigenous Studies Association, June 8, 2022, regional meeting Bodö,","keyword":"Sámi; Lule Sámi; Forest Sámi;  Windpower; Pandemic; Expertise; Knowledge; Decolonization","publisher-place":"Bodö","publisher":"NAISA, Native American and Indigenous Studies","published":[{"raw":"2026-03-21T23:44:56.454+01:00"}],"created":[{"raw":"2026-03-21T23:44:56.546+01:00"}],"updated":[{"raw":"2026-03-21T23:44:56.454+01:00"}],"URL":"https://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:uu:diva-582806"},{"id":"diva2:2047656","type":"book","issued":{"date-parts":[[2022]]},"title":"Vindkraft i Sápmi – grön omställning eller grön kolonialism? : Panelsamtal i samband med klimatkonferensen CHANGE den 8 oktober.","language":"swe","author":[{"family":"Öhman","given":"May-Britt","ORCID":"0000-0003-2820-0584","localId":"mayoh345","affiliation":[{"id":"877450","name":"Uppsala universitet, Centrum för mångvetenskaplig forskning om rasism (CFR)"},{"name":"Arramat Pathway T5 Decolonizing Science and Education "},{"id":"1267","name":"Uppsala universitet, Teologiska institutionen"}]},{"family":"Andersson","given":"Hampus","affiliation":[{"name":"Flakaberg group"}]},{"family":"Eriksson","given":"Elle","affiliation":[{"name":"Flakaberg group"}]},{"family":"Helsdotter","given":"Eva Charlotta","ORCID":"0000-0001-9504-0723","localId":"evahe519","affiliation":[{"id":"877450","name":"Uppsala universitet, Centrum för mångvetenskaplig forskning om rasism (CFR)"}]},{"family":"Andersson","given":"Kerstin","affiliation":[{"name":"Amnesty Sápmi"}]}],"abstract":"Panelsamtal i samband med klimatkonferensen CHANGE den 8 oktober.Medverkande: Docent Eva Charlotta Helsdotter, som deltar i forskningsprojektet Dálkke – urfolksperspektiv på klimat, Hampus Andersson och Elle Eriksson, Flakabergsgruppen, Gällivare skogssameby.Samtalsledare: Kerstin Andersson, Amnesty Sápmi.Visning av filmen Ogrön vindkraft: Samiska och naturvetenskapliga perspektiv på fossilberoende och miljöförstörande designFilmen är producerad inom ramen för forskningsprojektet Dálkke med stöd av FORMAS inom det nationella forskningsprogrammet om klimat.Arrangörer av panelsamtalet: Amnesty Sápmi och Centrum för mångvetenskaplig forskning om rasism, Uppsala universitet","NBN":"urn:nbn:se:uu:diva-582809","keyword":"vindkraft; urfolk; samer; omställning","publisher-place":"Stockholm","publisher":"Centrum för mångvetenskaplig forskning om rasism, CEMFOR; Amnesty Sápmi","note":"https://abfstockholm.se/evenemang/change-global-climate/","published":[{"raw":"2026-03-22T00:39:22.580+01:00"}],"created":[{"raw":"2026-03-22T00:39:22.651+01:00"}],"updated":[{"raw":"2026-03-22T00:39:22.580+01:00"}],"URL":"https://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:uu:diva-582809"}],"links":[{"type":"pid","link":"https://ltu.diva-portal.org/smash/api/project/swecris/project:8531"}]}]
