- I feel humbled before the assignment to lead the Swedish student movement. I hope to be able to contribute to organizational development and especially want to work to strengthen students' social safety nets, comments Caroline Sundberg.
Caroline Sundberg comes from the Social Sciences Corps at Lund University and has previously studied political science and gender studies. She will take over the post from Rebecka Stenkvist from Södertörn University's student union from 1 July.
Johan Alvfors, who from the beginning comes from the University of Technology's Student Union (THS), is also happy to continue as vice chairman.
- I thank you for the trust. In the coming year, I hope to be able to continue the work to strengthen the pedagogy in the university. The entire university benefits from good teaching, says Johan Alvfors.
