After several years of strong development, during which AcadeMedia has established itself as a quality leader and expanded to become Europe's largest education player, we now want to strengthen the board for the continued journey. We are convinced that these two new members will bring significant value, and we see their experience as a valuable addition to the board's future work, says Rune Andersson, Chairman of AcadeMedia's Nomination Committee. Annie Lööf has broad experience and great competence from both public and private sectors. Her experience in leadership, strategic issues, and regulatory environments will be an important addition to the board and AcadeMedia's continued development, believes Rune Andersson. Fredrik Rågmark has solid experience in building and developing operations within the welfare sector, both in Sweden and internationally. His long experience as a business leader and board member, along with his experience in international expansion, will be a significant complement to AcadeMedia's board, continues Rune Andersson. #AcadeMedia #styrelse #AnnieLööf (translated)

Merit Wager wrote that Finland's Foreign Minister Elina Valtonen had said that Finland should not accept traditions, cultures, or customs that limited girls' freedom. According to the Swedish translation that Wager shared, Valtonen believed that girls and women should be able to decide over their own lives, and that religious or cultural norms should not be used to restrict their freedom. Wager also recounted Valtonen's statement that the National Coalition Party wanted to ban face-covering garments, such as the burqa and niqab, in schools and other educational institutions. Valtonen had said that the government led by the National Coalition Party had strengthened the rights of girls and women by more clearly criminalizing forced marriages and female genital mutilation. She had described female genital mutilation as violence and said that every girl had the right to bodily integrity. According to Wager's account, Valtonen also emphasized that equality, individual freedom, and human rights should not be overridden by references to religion, culture, or tradition. Every girl should have the right to be seen, heard, dream, and shape her future based on her own desires, she had said. #Jämställdhet #MänskligaRättigheter #KvinnorsRättigheter (translated)

On the train, he met Sladjan Osmanagic. Birro recounted that they started talking after Sladjan heard music from The Jesus and Mary Chain that Birro was playing. They became close friends during the training in Stockholm and Gysinge, Birro wrote, and then continued to work together at Swedish Radio in Gothenburg. Sladjan initially worked on Musikjournalen and later became nationally known through Rally in P3. Birro also remembered their long conversations about football and Sladjan's love for Italian football.
