Actions
Svea Vikander is a researcher and media producer specialising in minority journalism, trauma, and storytelling. An award-winning writer with a background in psychology, she studies journalist safety at the University of the Basque Country, Bilbao, and is part of the Media, War, and Conflict (MEKK) research group at OsloMet. Her work also explores how Artificial Intelligence is shaping media, particularly in investigative journalism.
She is unintelligible (yet deeply emotional) in seven languages, and—depending on the day—can be found researching media ethics, producing Indigenous films, or struggling valiantly to make language say the unsayable/write an email. Her work has appeared in The Rumpus, This Magazine, The Toronto Star, and the CBC, and has been reported on in The San Francisco Chronicle and The New York Times.
Svea comes from a creative lineage that includes an Oscar-winning actress, a human rights journalist, and a 17th-century woman beheaded for witchcraft. She lives in Oslo.
