ABOUT SIKRESIDEN.NO (ON THE SAFE SIDE)

Sikresiden.no is created by and for Norwegian universities, colleges, and research institutions. More than 30 organizations in Norway participate in the Sikresiden collaboration, which is a social innovation.

We operationalise guiding documents so they effectively reach the organization, ensuring that students and employees know what to do when something happens and how they can contribute to preventing unwanted incidents .
