Norah Lång

Norah Lång comes from the archipelago of the autonomous Åland Islands, located in the Baltic Sea between Finland and Sweden, but is now living in Malmö in southern Sweden. She studies peace and conflict studies at Lund University, is a freelance journalist as well as one of the editors of the Swedish literary magazine Ordkonst, and is engaged in various other culture and media projects. 

One of her previous works is the short documentary film “KÄNN INGEN SKAM FÖR MIG MHAMN”, which follows the lives of young Ålanders in the small harbor town Mariehamn. Further, she is engaged in poetry, and writes on topics of heritage, nature and the contemporary generation of the archipelago — among other things. Her heart beats for sustainability and human rights, but also for global, political issues in a wide sense.
