2024 is coming to an end and it has been a different FUF year. As a result of the government's reduced support for non-governmental organizations, both FUF's operations and office shrank, and we closed our premises on Ehrensvärdsgatan, which many of you have visited for training, seminars and networking over the years. However, our determination to work to increase knowledge, debate and commitment to global issues has remained strong!

Josephine Sundqvist is awarded the FUF prize in 2024 because, through her efforts in both academia, civil society and the world of authorities, she has contributed to improving the living conditions of people living in poverty and oppression.
