Local groups

Everywhere in Sweden, people are needed who spread knowledge about global development issues. FUF therefore, in addition to its operations in Stockholm, has local groups in several places around the country. If you do not find one where you live, you can always start a new one!

Our local groups manage their own activities based on the interests in the group, with support from FUF's office.

Here you can read about the local groups that currently exist:

FUF Jönköping

FUF Linköping

FUF Stockholm South

FUF Uppsala

FUF Gothenburg

Start a new local group

We previously also had local groups in Umeå, Malmö, Lund and Örebro. Is there no local group in your area? In that case, you can start a new group and contribute to knowledge about global development in more places in Sweden! Contact lokalgrupp@fuf.se

FUF's office will:

Be a sounding board for your ideas and activities
Offer you to choose from ready-made seminar packages with speakers from our network
Add your activities to our well-attended calendar
Invite you to our trainings and network meetings as well as to our internal communication platform where you can create contact with other local groups

Organize at least two activities per semester, of which one is an external activity. Some examples of external activities:
