How nice that you are interested in our events and seminars at FUF. We arrange around 50 seminars and events each year, with a focus on global issues, such as human rights, the climate or peace and conflict. This is so that more people will get facts and knowledge about the world and with that act for a fairer and more sustainable world. Our events are organized by both FUF's office and non-profit activists who are passionate members of FUF and are passionate about global issues.

Here is some information:

Physical events

Most of our events and seminars that we have where we meet physically take place at FUF's office located at Ehrensvärdsgatan 4, 112 35 Stockholm, To get here, take the subway to Fridhemsplan or Rådhuset. From there it is about a 10-minute walk. You can also take bus 3 from Slussen and get off at the stop Polhemsgatan. Important to note that the venue is half a flight of stairs down, without a lift and that there is no ear loop. Our premises can accommodate about 40 people.

We also record most of our events and seminars that we arrange, it may happen that the audience is also filmed, therefore it is important that you notify us at FUF if you wish not to be filmed. We then publish these films on our YouTube channel FUFPlay so more people can access the information.

To be able to attend our events, you do not need to be a member, but you must register. Information on how to register can be found in each invitation. Of course, we hope you want to become a member, so we can continue to run our business.

Digital events

We have both digital events via Facebook live and via Zoom. To access an event in Zoom, you must pre-register, usually the day before the seminar or event. When you register, you will receive a link sent to you via email, as well as a reminder in the morning before the event. These can get in the spam, so check there. If you do not receive a confirmation within 10 minutes when you register, contact FUF's office or the contact person who is in the invitation.

Feel free to log in to the link at least 10 minutes before the start, so you have time to contact the office if you need help, as the technical support is very limited once the call has started.

You do not need to have your camera on, but this is something that is appreciated by our speakers. We also ask you to have the microphone muted during the call, in order to hear the speakers as well as possible. Questions are appreciated and it is asked in the chat.

As a rule, our digital events are always recorded and later posted on our website YouTube channel FUFPlay so more people can access the information.

It is important to cancel your place

As a rule, all our events are free, unless otherwise stated, which is so great about FUF. But that's why we also see many people who sign up and then don't show up. As we have a limited number of places, both digitally and at physical events, this means that some who are queuing to come do not get a ticket. We also plan staffing and coffee based on the number of registered participants and therefore urge that anyone who is prevented from canceling their ticket well in advance of the start of the seminar.
