We are celebrating our anniversary - and you are invited!

Center for Everyday Life of Families in the Welfare State (CELFS) is celebrating its 1-year anniversary on March 11, 2026 – and we would love to see you all there!

The event is hosted in collaboration with the Sapere Aude-project (Re)configuration of Parenthood, funded by Independent Research Fund Denmark (DFF). 

The afternoon begins with a presentation of the project’s key findings and results, followed by research presentations from Associate Professor Stine Thidemann Faber (AAU) and Professor Ellie Lee (University of Kent). These presentations address how parenting in the welfare state emerges as high politics and tied to risk and prevention. 

Everyone is welcome – remember to sign up, as registration is required: https://events.ruc.dk/celfs1-yearanniversary/conference. We kindly ask that you RSVP (through the event site) by March 1st.
