As part of a broader campus visit, the delegation joined I-House Executive Director and CEO Shaun Carver , UC Berkeley faculty and administrators, representatives from BISP Nordic Center and Global Engagement Office and students for lunch and conversation at I-House.
The afternoon continued in the Great Hall with a student meet-and-greet, bringing together the delegation, Berkeley representatives and students for informal conversations around education, research and the international student experience at Berkeley.
The visiting delegation included members of the Norwegian Parliament alongside Royal Norwegian Consulate General in San Francisco Consul General Kirsten Hammelbo, Deputy Consul General Kjell Erik Brekke and other Norwegian representatives.
Bringing people from different countries, institutions and experiences together through conversation and connection has long been at the heart of I-House.
