The Swedish government has decided that all asylum seekers who come to the country in the future will undergo a mandatory social introduction course shortly after their arrival.
The Swedish Migration Board has been tasked with preparing an introductory course that will inform the new arrivals about the asylum process, Swedish legislation, and the country’s democratic norms and values. This includes information on the rules that apply to so-called “honour-related” violence and oppression as well as protection from discrimination and abuse.
