    1. International Community

    Fall 2025 is election season in Norway, and that means that Norway’s politicians will be in a rush to convey their plans, goals and policies. The main theme for this debate will be the European talent crisis, and how the different political parties are planning to deal with it through their programs.

    It might be difficult to keep up with Norwegian politics if you’re not fluent in Norwegian, and for that reason, Work in Trondheim invites you to Trondheim’s first political debate in English! Expect a high-energy evening where local politicians debate it out at the Digs Main Stage. Questions from the audience are welcomed. The event is free - signup form in tickets.
