Expertgruppen för Studier i Offentlig ekonomi (ESO), part of the Ministry of Finance, arranged a seminar where the ESO-report “Familjepolitik för alla? En ESO-rapport om föräldrapenning och jämställdhet” was presented. This was followed by a discussion on future family politics and policies in Sweden. The report was written by Ann-Zofie Duvander from SUDA/SPaDE and the Swedish Social Insurance Inspectorate as well as by Tommy Ferrarini from the Swedish Institute for Social Research (SOFI) and Mats Johansson.

 

The authors of the report also wrote a debate article in Svenska Dagbladet on the topic, proposing potential routes to a more gender equal uptake of parental leave as well as gains from a more equal uptake.
