Young people must be in focus to build peace

Of: Gideon Ayodo

Despite many aid efforts to promote peace, conflicts continue to start around the world. In almost all conflicts, young people are used to commit and participate in violence. Therefore, Sweden, the EU and the UN should invest in supporting peace work aimed at young people, writes the organization Youth Alive! Kenya.

Today, on International Day of Charity, I would like to Today, on International Day of Charity, we would like to remind you that in an uncertain world, it is difficult to understand how we ourselves benefit from helping others.

Swedish aid should have democracy and human rights Swedish aid should have democracy and human rights as its starting point and goal. At least 1% of gross national income (GNI) should be allocated to international aid. This is what the Christian Democrats write on their website. At the same time, the Tidö government has reduced aid and stated that Sweden's international aid should benefit Swedish interests. Now the comrades in the Tidö Cooperation are also talking about further cuts to the aid budget. Why should Sweden have aid and how far are the Christian Democrats willing to compromise with aid? These are some of the questions we ask when FUF continues our Instagram Live series where we ask the parliamentary parties' aid policy spokespersons what their parties want with aid. In the sixth conversation in the series, we question the Christian Democrats' Gudrun Brunegård, member of parliament and aid policy spokesperson. 📅 September 8 🕐 14:00 📍Instagram Live @fuf.se The conversation can also be watched afterwards here on Instagram and on our YouTube channel fufplay. At fuf.se/val2026 you will find all our party hearings, articles about politics and tips on more sources that describe the world's role in the Swedish election.

Yesterday, a group of FUF members enjoyed the company of Swedish Championship champions Yesterday, a group of FUF members enjoyed the company of the Swedish Championship champion in seagull singing, a sea monster, (a real) butterfly, and 50,000 people who want to see an effective climate policy. It was a powerful feeling to stand, wait & dance for 2 hours before we could start our march through Sthlm. Thank you to everyone who marched (and worked) with us and urged politicians to act for a more just and sustainable global development! 👏🎉
