The research group is concerned with studying both which mechanisms increase the risk of alienation, what characterizes children and young people's own experiences with alienation, and what consequences alienation has for the individual child and youth, and for society.

The term outsiders describes a situation where individuals or groups of people stand outside what are considered central social arenas, for example where they do not participate in work life or take education, or where they lack linguistic or cultural connection to the rest of society.

Disaster can arrive in many forms. It can be caused by a natural disaster (i.e. landslides or hurricanes), industrial failures (i.e. chemical spills or building collapse), political rationalities (i.e. terrorism or war) and other incidents both accidental or purposeful. Disaster has phases and aftermaths for response and recovery and differing implications across a variety of scales.
