As rector of the Volda University College I’m very proud of this symposium happening i Volda and Loen. And speaking for all of the University College we all wish You the best and hope that the days on the symposium will live up to the expectations of all of the Volda University College: In Norwegian we say: Lære, leve, oppleve.
