Center for Research in Faith and Health

Center for Research in Faith and Health in Denmark is a local research initiative housed in the Research Unit Health, Man and Society under the Institute of Public Health at the University of Southern Denmark (SDU).
The Center forms part of the Network for Research in Faith and Health and centers on the same aims. Thus, it has the same background and purpose of strategically advancing the research in Faith and Health in the Northern Countries.
It presently holds four ph.d.-students with more coming that are presented under the tab Center Projects. The projects are financed partly by various grants (2/3) and partly from the Faculty of Health Sciences of the University of Southern Denmark (1/3).
The Center hosts monthly seminars that are open to all interested participants in the larger Network for Research in Faith and Health.
