This report from the “Core values project at Lund University” attempts to answer these questions, problematise various values and provide support for core values work at a ‘typical’ university. The book contains the history of core values, their legal
and cultural background in general and at Lund University in particular.
It provides examples of methods which can be applied in core values work, such as a deeper understanding of discrimination and master suppression techniques, norm criticism and inclusive teaching. It concludes with an inventory of relevant projects at Lund University (Less)
