Program Activities in House of Sweden

Since the new Embassy of Sweden in Washington was inaugurated in October 2006, over 200,000 people have visited House of Sweden and participated in the Embassy's public diplomacy program events promoting mutual Swedish - U.S. interests in the areas of politics, culture, trade and research to a large American and international audience.

The upcoming fall program is "Shaping Tomorrow’s World - Infrastructure and Intelligent Mobility" running from September 30th through December 5th.

The focus will be on sustainable infrastructure and traffic solutions. Other topics include green building technologies, digital infrastructure, traffic safety and internet security.

A series of seminars, exhibitions, performances, roundtable discussions, hands-on demonstrations and cultural events will provide a unique platform to enhance transatlantic discussions and cooperation within these important areas.

A complete schedule of events and exhibitions will be available shortly.
