Since being successfully held in May, the webinar “No One Is an Island: the Rights Protection of Vulnerable Groups in the Pandemic” that OsloMet Co-organized with Wuhan University of China has gained considerable attention from Chinese society. Several mainstream mass media from China, including the state-owned media (i.e. Xinhuanet, CGTN, China Daily) have successively covered this webinar worldwide. These coverages have contributed to widespread fresh opinions, views and discussions from the webinar and inspire people around the world on how we could take measures correspondingly, and meaningfully marked our Norway-China co-operation and communication in the realm of right protection for the vulnerable population. Notably, Professor Rune Halvorsen was interviewed by China Society of Human Rights Studies, sharing his observation on social consequences of Covid-19 in Europe, especially in Norway.
