I am the contact person for Finland of the European Society of Women in Theological Research (ESWTR). In 2007, the ESWTR Journal will be done by Scandinavians. I am co-editing it with Hanna Stenström from Sweden.
I was one of the five visiting scholars in 2002-03 of the Women's Studies of Religion Program at the Harvard Divinity School in Cambridge, USA, which brings in five scholars of religion and gender every year to do research and teach one course, and can give information on the program.
