As a co-investigator with the On the Move Partnership, Marit Aure has studied  employment-related geographical mobility from an international perspective. Her research focuses mainly on mobility and migration and gender related to oil and gas activity in Northern Norway, especially to the communities of Hammerfest and Kvalsund. Aure also studies other form of migration and migrant integration, as well as women in the oil and gas industry. Aure collaborated with other On the Move researchers to compare aspects of her research in Northern Norway with processes going on in Canada. In order to do so, she visited field sites in Canada. Dr. Aure’s work primarily focused on qualitative research, but also drew on statistical data.
