Listen Later

Recent elections in Norway ushered in the most ethnically-diverse parliament in the nation's history, signalling the shift in its core demographic. Islam, in particular, has been on the rise, making it the second-largest religion in the Scandinavian country after Christianity. 

In this episode hosted by the Concordia Forum in the Nobel Peace Center, Muddassar Ahmed, joined by a panel of experts, explores the contributions and impact of Muslims on this new and ever-changing Norwegian society. Our panelists include Naz Shah (Member of Parliament for Bradford West), Shazia Majid (Senior Investigative Journalist at VG, a leading Norway Newspaper), Mohammad Usman Rana (Norwegian Columnist, Commentator, and Doctor).
