VISIBILITY
Media strategy
CASA aims at a media strategy for popular science presenta-
tions of its research activities in magazines, newspapers,
on television, radio and the web. It is also an aim to make
female researchers particularly visible in order to recruit
women fellowship holders and contribute to a more even
gender balance in this research field. The popularized part of
this report is an example of how these strategies are carried
out. The articles have also been published in our monthly
newsletter (see below) and on the blog
www.ntnutechzone.no.
SFI CASA newsletter
As part of the media strategy SFI CASA has a monthly
newsletter. The newsletter is sent out to partners, contacts
and other people in CASA’s social and professional network and
to professionally interested parts of the media. The newsletter
presents both research news and in-depth interviews with key
personnel working with CASA. The newsletter is published at:
http://sfi-casa.no/and anyone can subscribe to the monthly
newsletter sent out by email.
Seminar on public security
CASA invited relevant public authorities to a seminar on
physical security on 19 August 2016. The Norwegian state
secretary for the Minister of Justice and Public Security,
Gjermund Hagesæter and Senior Advisor May-Kristin Ensrud
attended and contributed with a presentation of their research
strategy. In addition representatives from the Norwegian
National Security Authority, The Ministry of Local Government
and Modernisation and the Norwegian Police Security Service
were present.
Presentation video
In November 2015, CASA decided to make a presentation video.
A significant number of the staff was involved in the planning
and production throughout 2016. The result and reception will
be presented in next year’s annual report.
CASA in the media
CASA Senior Engineer Trond Auestad helped the National Norwegian broadcaster NRK in the production of a popular science program called Putting your
life at risk (Med livet som innsats). Trond Auestad used one of CASA’s Phantom cameras to film underwater testing with a rifle gun. The programme was
broadcast on 24 January 2016.
