Share Your Story

Every story matters. Yours could help change the conversation.

Behind every pending citizenship application is a real person — a colleague, a neighbor, a parent, a partner. We are collecting personal stories to show the human side of Sweden's citizenship law changes.

Why We're Collecting Stories

Policy changes can feel abstract until you hear from the people they affect. These stories help the public, journalists, and decision-makers understand what's at stake — not in numbers, but in lived experience.

How Your Story Will Be Used

  • Shared in a Humans of New York style format on our social media channels
  • Potentially shared with journalists and policymakers to raise awareness

Your Privacy, Your Choice

  • Use your full name, first name only, or remain completely anonymous
  • A full photo is entirely optional
  • You can share a privacy-preserving image instead — hands, a silhouette, a meaningful object

Who Can Share?

Anyone affected by the new citizenship requirements — working migrants, families, spouses, healthcare workers, students, long-term residents. Whether you've been here for 3 years or 15, your perspective matters.

Ready to Share?

It takes just a few minutes. Tell us about yourself, your journey, and how the citizenship changes affect your life. We'll handle the rest with care.

Please try to include: What country you're from · Date you moved to Sweden · Date you applied for citizenship · Your job title · Your Swedish level · Your education level

A portrait, hands, silhouette, or meaningful object. Max 5MB.
