Audun Bjørlo Lysbakken (born 30 September 1977) is a Norwegian politician who served as the leader of the Norwegian Socialist Left Party from 2012 to 2023. His career in national politics began when he was elected to the Norwegian parliament in 2001. In 2006, he became deputy leader of the Socialist Left Party. He held the post as Minister of Children and Equality in Jens Stoltenberg's second government from October 2009 to March 2012,[1] when he resigned due to a conflict of interest.[2] Under his leadership, the Socialist Left Party had strong gains in its vote share in Parliamentary elections and membership.[3][4]
