- The level of awareness and services available in Norway
- Inclusion vs integration
- Describing autism based on level of need rather than diagnostic criteria
- Autism Europe’s mission, policy work, and research initiatives
- Why researchers and practitioners need to work together
- Bringing mental and somatic health to the forefront of the political discussion
- Objectives Harald wants to complete before the end of his term
