This summer, the North East Iceland Knowledge Network is conducting an interview study among immigrants in North East Iceland, with a grant from the Immigration Development Fund. The study is about how immigrants experience life in the municipality, what has gone well, and what challenges they have faced.
The aim is to gain insight into the experiences of people, which can be used to improve services for immigrants and contribute to a stronger and more cohesive society. The research is being conducted in close collaboration with Norðurþing and SSNE. We are now looking for participants for interviews. The interview will take approximately 30–45 minutes and can be held at a location that is most convenient for the interviewee, such as at home, in a café, at the Knowledge Network office, or elsewhere. The interviews will be conducted in Icelandic, English or the interviewee's mother tongue, with the assistance of an interpreter if required.
If you are an immigrant in Norðurþing and are interested in sharing your experience, or know someone who might be interested, please feel free to email Aðalbjörn Jóhannsson, who is conducting the interviews: adalbjorn@hac.is
We emphasise that all responses will be treated in the strictest confidence and that results will not be traceable to individuals.

This summer, Húsavík Academic Centre is conducting an interview-based research project among immigrants living in Norðurþing, with support from the Development Fund for Immigrant Issues.
The research focuses on how immigrants experience life in the municipality—what has gone well and what challenges they have faced. The aim is to gather insights that can help improve services for immigrants and contribute to building a stronger, more inclusive community. The project is carried out in close collaboration with the municipality of Norðurþing and SSNE (The Association of Municipalities of Northeast Iceland).
We are currently looking for participants to be interviewed. Interviews take approximately 30–45 minutes and can be held wherever the participant prefers, at home, in a café, at the Þekkingarnet office, or elsewhere. The interviews can be conducted in Icelandic, English, or the participant's native language, with an interpreter if needed.
If you are an immigrant living in Norðurþing and are willing to share your experience, or know someone who might be, please contact Aðalbjörn Jóhannsson, who is conducting the interviews: adalbjorn@hac.is
