the challenge

– this year, the need of the settlements in the municipalities to be at its greatest. Our forecast for people who will need instruction is 26 500. We are aware that this is a big challenge for the individual municipalities that will require a well-functioning cooperation between the us and the municipalities. But our starting point is that we will apply the bosättningslagen, ” says Lindstrand Edge.
