She combines perspectives from medical anthropology and social paediatrics to understand children\u2019s experiences through both international rights frameworks and a specific cultural context.<\/p>\n<p>The research employs a flexible ethnographic approach with diverse data collection methods and consists of four connected papers: The first paper reveals how children\u2019s voices were rarely heard in international research during the early pandemic. The second paper explores international experts\u2019 views on how children\u2019s rights were considered in government emergency responses. The third paper analyses diverse artistic expressions from Icelandic children aged 6-16, showing how they demonstrated agency through humour, social responsibility, and critical thinking. The fourth study illustrates how adolescents aged 12-18 used trust and creativity to maintain social connections despite restrictions.<\/p>\n<p>The findings show that although children were often marginalised in public health policy-making, they demonstrated significant agency, resilience, and creativity. The research emphasises the importance of recognising children and adolescents as active participants in decision-making, especially during crises.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Um doktorsefni\u00f0:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Eva er f\u00e6dd 27. jan\u00faar 1989 \u00ed Reykjav\u00edk.
