We are extremely proud and honoured that Lund University, Faculty of Humanities, have decided to grant Sisters Hope founder and artistic director Gry Worre Hallberg with an Honorary Doctorate.

An honorary doctorate, or Doctor honoris causa, is an academic degree given by a university to recognize highly siginificant contributions and achievements in a specific field. This prestigious award is conferred to individuals who have demonstrated exceptional scholarship, leadership, public service, or excellence in the arts, business, or other fields. Unlike a regular doctorate, it is not earned through academic study but is granted as a form of high honor and recognition.

Gry Worre Hallberg will receive the award at the doctoral convocation at Lund University on May 29, 2026.
