Swedish Radio has undergone a digital transformation while maintaining its core values of being independent, trusted, and open-minded. It has three pillars of service: terrestrial broadcasting, IP-based production for web and mobile, and social media. Terrestrial broadcasting still reaches 7 million listeners but its future is uncertain, so funding is needed for parallel FM and DAB+ broadcasts. Efforts since 2010 have focused on developing the second pillar of IP-based content, while the third pillar of social media presence on platforms like Facebook has grown substantially. Swedish Radio plays a vital role in Sweden's democratic society by sharing people's stories, like those who fled to Sweden.

11. For one week, we collected people’s stories ……about fleeing to SwedenHere are some of these stories from #minflyktOne day – it ‘s our turn…For the last time, Mum locks the door to our home.And then we fled.When weapons were fired at constant intervals……when our neighbors’ bodies lay on the ground……we decided to flee.My mother was only 17……when she packed her life inside a suitcase.But despite that, her flight has affected me.Now, I’m sitting here writing down her story.Then we fled into Syria……there, we were imprisoned.Mum and I was separated from Dad.Screams were heard from the other cells……from men who were being tortured....…some of them to death.Mum tried to hear……if any of these screams were my Dad’s…One of my first memories in Sweden……Dad telling me that I don’t have to be afraid……of the police anymore.I remember the first night at the refugee centre in TumbaThey explained to us how to use a flush toilet……that made us laugh a lot.How do I tell my Swedish-born sibling……about my experiences fleeing to Sweden.What should I tell…. and when?We started over in a new country……but we never talked about what we’d lost.We looked to the future.But our memories and wounds were still there…I’m responsible for making my own happiness.For my mum’s sake…Thanks to everyone who participated in #minflykt
