Anne Lindboe

In summer 2012, she was interviewed for Vårt Land (Norwegian newspaper), where she demanded that religious male circumcision changes in symbolic term. Invited in Helsinki at NOCIRC & Sexpo (organisation) symposium, 2 October 2012, Anne Lindboe confirmed that she was approached by the Simon Wiesenthal Centre but upheld her view that traditional male circumcision should be banned. In 2013 Anne Lindboe and the children's ombudsmen from Sweden, Finland, Denmark and Iceland along with the Chair of the Danish Children's Council and the children's spokesperson for Greenland passed a resolution to "Let boys decide for themselves whether they want to be circumcised." They further declared that "Circumcision without a medical indication on a person unable to provide informed consent conflicts with basic principles of medical ethics."

From 2008 to 2011, she was a consultant at Statens Barnehus Oslo, and from 2010 also a researcher at the Norwegian Institute of Public Health. She worked as an intern at Bærum Hospital 2001–2002 and as an assistant physician at Drammen Hospital 2002–2003 and Ullevål University Hospital 2004–2007. In 2010, she admitted to the PhD programme at the University of Oslo, but has not completed a doctorate.

She obtained the cand.med. (MD) degree at the University of Oslo in 2000, and also holds an MBA in Management from the Norwegian School of Economics. She was approved as a specialist in paediatrics in 2011.

Anne Lindboe (born 1 August 1971) is a Norwegian paediatrician, and was the Norwegian Children's Ombudsman 2012-2018.
