Happy to address the #ASEM High-Level Dialogue on Women’s Economic Empowerment Amid the Covid-19 Pandemic in Hanoi. Ways to tackle gender bias related to economic and social inclusion at the forefront.
Since early April in a sudden hectic mission to coordinate my Government’s 15 repatriation flights of Swedish and EU citizens around the world due to the Covid 19 crisis. Thanks to a great team effort the operation has been a success!
”Social dialogue is not only the right thing to do but also the smart thing to do” Swedish Prime Minister Stefan Löfvén speaking at the Global Deal Conference: Social Dialogue for a Better Future of Work #theglobaldeal#FutureofWork
First day without the UK as member of the EU. Indeed regrettable, but no other path than to ”look at the bright side of life”. For instance, expecting even stronger attention in London on the #OECD - a multilateral institution where we create better policies together!🇬🇧🇸🇪
Idag är det extra roligt att vara utbildningsminister! Kunskapsresultaten har förbättrats i samtliga ämnen och Sverige ligger över OECD-snittet, @Anna_Ekstrom#PISA2018#PISA#utbpol
Sweden engages with the OECD to ”create better policies for better lives”. Inspiring meeting OECD Chief of Staff Ms Ramos, Swe Amb Brandt and other great colleagues in Paris. More gender equal trade policies, implementing Global Deal, among issues on the agenda.
Landed in Stockholm. New view, new role.. Coordinating Swedish policies in the OECD and G20. OECD Secretariat increasingly important in preparing/supporting G20 initiatives. Key maintaining Swedish interests in this institutional configuration.
Wonderful to be back in Tensta, Sweden, to exchange ideas with Swedish-Somali friends and Ambassador colleagues. The engagement for continued investments in peace, stability and development in Somalia was deep!🇸🇪🇸🇴
Mourning the passing away of my friend, #Mogadishu Mayor and Benadir Governor Abdirahman Omar Osman (@engyarisow). We engaged hard to Prevent and Counter Violent Extremism. Deeply saddened to see Yarisow fall victim, but his legacy and commitment to the cause will prevail.
We condemn yesterday’s attack at the Banadir Regional Administration offices. Our thoughts are with the families of the victims and pray for a speedy recovery to Mayor @engyarisow and others. Sweden stands with the people and Government of Somalia!
Appalled to hear of yet another deadly attack in Somalia, today in Mogadishu. My thoughts go to the victims and their families. Sweden stands in solidarity with Somalia and its people in building peace, prosperity and security.
Good meeting with H.E. President Farmaajo today. Discussing key relationships, such as with the Federal Member States, the region and the United Nations.
State Secretary Elin Olsson discussed sustainable urban planning and housing for IDP:s with Minister Abdi Aden Hosow in the margins of the UN Habitat Assembly in Nairobi. Durable solutions for IDP:s key Swedish support area in Somalia!
