On International Women's Day, the Swedish association Folk och Försvar, which roughly translates to "society and defence", published a podcast episode on young women's involvement in discussions on defence and national security.
In the episode, Louise Olsson presented results from a research study on the role of Women, Peace and Security and gender equality in a Swedish national defence context – a study conducted 2019-2021 and funded by the Swedish Armed Forces.
