The financing model for higher education needs to be fundamentally overhauled to meet the societal challenges we face. This is what SFS writes presidium Linn Svärd and Jacob Färnert.

- Promote efficient use of resources.
- Balancing the allocation of resources between education and research.
- Increase the university's ability to meet both short-term and long-term needs.
- Influence over sizing and supply.
