HERA-projects

Two associate professors at School of Culture and Society have received grants for two different HERA-projects for the next three years. HERA (Humanities in the European Research Area) is a network of 26 national funding agencies committed to leading and developing funding opportunities for humanities researchers in Europe.

Associate professor Louise Fabian is part of the HERA-project Governing the Narcotic City. Imaginaries, Practices and Discourses of Public Drug Cultures in European Cities from 1970 until Today.

This research project explores the discourses, imaginaries, practices and consequences of public drug use from the 1970s until the present, with a focus on Western and Central European cities.
