Jenny Bengtsson is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Education, Communication and Learning at the University of Gothenburg. Her academic work focuses on critical examinations of education systems, particularly regarding sexuality education, gender norms, and inclusive practices in school settings across multiple educational levels from preschool through primary education.
Her research interests center on norm-critical pedagogy, sexuality education, children's bodily integrity, and inclusive educational practices. Bengtsson critically examines how schools function as sites of norm production and reproduction, with particular attention to gender, sexuality, and age politics. Her work consistently addresses how educational institutions can become more inclusive spaces that respect children's rights and bodily autonomy while challenging dominant norms.
Analysis of her recent publications (2021-2025) reveals a clear trajectory toward examining open school models, community collaboration in urban educational settings, and the implementation of norm-critical approaches in sexuality education. Her research demonstrates growing interest in how schools navigate tensions between policy mandates and practical implementation of inclusive education, particularly regarding sensitive topics like sexuality and bodily boundaries.
Bengtsson's scholarly contributions appear consistently in educational journals and edited volumes focused on gender, sexuality, and critical pedagogy. Her collaborative work with scholars like Eva Bolander, Eva Reimers, and Nils Hammarén demonstrates strong interdisciplinary connections across education, gender studies, and social work fields.
