COJUST’s qualitative approach – the joys and frustrations
The COJUST team has been to three different cities this Autumn; Trondheim, Bergen and Stavanger, and two main ethnographic approaches to gather the stories from low-income groups have been applied; storytelling workshops that are followed up by individual interviews. The choice to visit different cities is part of COJUST’s myth-busting, this means providing the stories that show that Norway is not as egalitarian or homogenous as it likes to present itself. The growing number of people who are defined by NAV or national statistics, as living on a low-income is part of this, as are the regional and city-based variations.
This text is about gathering stories in Trondheim.

As COJUST is about sustainability and climate measures for vulnerable groups in society, it is also important that we in this project live as we learn. An important factor is that the trips must be accomplish in an environmental friendly way. We will try to avoid flights and use public transport (bus and train) when we move. The food we eat and serve will be vegetarian, vegan or organic.
In this post, we will tell about our experiences, reflections and experiences from the field work in Stavanger and Bergen.
