Summary
The Swedish Government has established a Globalisation Council to promote a deeper knowledge of globalisation issues, draw up economic policy strategies and broaden public dialogue about what needs to be done to ensure that Sweden can compete successfully in a world marked by continued rapid globalisation. The Council's work is expected to lead to proposed measures whose purpose, broadly defined, will be to boost Sweden's competitiveness and attractiveness on the international scene. The Council, which is chaired by the Minister for Higher Education and Research, Lars Leijonborg, and whose Principal Secretary is Pontus Braunerhjelm, has been set up as an interdepartmental working group within the Government Offices. Its Secretariat is based at the Ministry of Education and Research.
