One of the Swedish ministers who was present was Finance Minister and Social Democrat Magdalena Andersson (S). She talked about several important gender equality issues that the government is currently working on.

In her speech at the conference, she focused on financial equality. She tells SVT that an important issue for the government is now about getting foreign-born women out into the labor market.

- It's an incredibly important gender equality issue right now, says Magdalena Andersson (S).

Invest in women's professions

The Finance Minister also raises other issues that the Government considers important. It is a matter of wanting to expand activities in, among other things, school and elderly care, in order to be able to continue working there, especially women.

- Otherwise, there is a risk that it is precisely women who lose working hours, she says.
