Forskning.se – for news and communication about research

Forskning.se publishes news about research from Swedish universities, research institutes, and research organisations. The Swedish Research Council coordinates the development of forskning.se, and the editorial team is based at our offices.

Speech bubble that says that it should be easy to access research,

“It should be easy to access research”

Forskning.se is funded by five public agencies: the Swedish Research Council, Vinnova, Forte, the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency and the Swedish National Space Agency. The purpose of the website is to increase access to Swedish research. The site also offers a service that helps journalists get in touch with researchers (previously known as Expertsvar), and a guide that explains how research works (Fatta forskning).

Please note that most of the forskning.se website is only available in Swedish.

Contribute with content and services

The goal is to further develop forskning.se into a national resource for news and communication about research, with more content and additional services. We welcome contributions from other organisations too!
