  • Ambassador Nicolas Weeks 🇸🇪 had a gratifying 🤩🙏meeting with the Hon. Adviser, Mr. Sk. Bashir Uddin, from the Ministry of Commerce! 🇧🇩 The discussions dove deep into the dynamics of fostering more sustainable trade and commercial ties between 🇧🇩 and 🇸🇪 ⚡️One example of how SE wants to partner up with BD in the green transition is the Climate Challenge Fund 🌎🌱; this fund can help scale small projects into more significant ventures, mitigating initial risks and enabling self-sustainability for social and sustainable businesses. The Green and Just Transition 🌎🌱 is an area where BD and SE can partner up! Over 50 Swedish companies 💪 are active in Bangladesh. Tech-know-how 🧠💡and skills transfer⚡️ initiatives collaborating with Bangladesh's Interim Government were discussed. Streamlining the process of opening letters of credit by reducing administrative hurdles and an overall open and transparent business climate is needed to attract more foreign direct investment. Together, let’s drive meaningful change and create a brighter future for both nations! 🇸🇪🤝🇧🇩

  • STORIES OF CHANGE. Meet Jorina and Runa, new entrepreneurs from Nikli, Kishoreganj. Climate change is worsening river erosion and making rain fall harder to predict in Nikli, deepening poverty by making it more difficult to grow crops. Through a women’s rights group supported by Sweden, Jorina and Runa have accessed loans that have helped them establish alternative livelihoods. Jorina started a business by purchasing and rearing ducks. Today, each of them produces ducklings that she plans to sell to further her business. Runa set up a shop selling daily necessities in the corner of her tin shed house. She also began using her sewing and embroidery skills to produce and sell clothes and bedspreads. Their businesses have not only increased their income and resilience to climate change but have also elevated their positions within their families and communities. Thank you Manusher Jonno Foundation and POPI BD for initiating the women’s rights group and making this story of change possible. #StoriesofChangeSweden #StoriesofChangeBangladesh #TeamSweden

  • Happy Lucia! 💡✨✨ আপনি কি সুইডেনের বিখ্যাত 'লুসিয়া' ট্রেডিশন সম্পর্কে শুনেছেন ? গতকাল রাতে আমরা #লুসিয়া দিবস উদযাপন করেছি – সুইডিশ ঐতিহ্যবাহী উৎসবগুলোর মধ্যে সবচেয়ে বিখ্যাত এই উৎসব।   লুসিয়া কি? এটি মূলত একটি প্রজ্জ্বলিত মোমবাতি মিছিল, লুসিয়া তার চুলে আলো পরে, তারপরে তার হ্যান্ডমেইডেনরা মোমবাতি বহন করে এবং ছেলেরা তাদের মাথায় কাগজের শঙ্খযুক্ত লাঠিতে তারা বহন করে। সবাই সাদা ফুল লম্বা গাউন পরে সুইডিশ ক্রিসমাস গান গাইছে। 🎶🎼🎹   লুসিয়াকে "আলোর বাহক" হিসাবে দেখা হয়; ঠান্ডা এবং অন্ধকার উত্তরের শীতকালে আলোর গুরুত্বের প্রতীক। ❄️☃️   আপনি কি কখনও লুসিয়ার মিছিল দেখেছেন? 💖   -- Happy Lucia! 💡✨✨ Last night we celebrated #Lucia Day – one of the most cherished Swedish traditions.   So what is Lucia? Well, it is basically a candlelit procession, with the Lucia wearing lights in her hair, followed by her handmaidens carrying candles and boys carrying stars on sticks with paper cones on their heads. Everyone wearing white full-length gowns and singing Swedish Christmas-songs. 🎶🎼🎹   Lucia is seen as the “bearer of light and hope” and symbolizes the importance of light in the cold and dark Northern winters. ❄️☃️   Have you ever seen a Lucia procession? 💖

  • We are delighted to have hosted an impactful dialogue together with our Nordic neighbor Embassy of Denmark in Bangladesh and BRAC about the outcomes from COP29 and the implications for Bangladesh looking forward. Sweden wants to highlight the importance of working together for the green transition in Bangladesh. While the outcomes of COP29 left much to ask, we remain firm believers in multilateralism and the UNFCCC process United Nations. The dialogue highlighted the need for technology transfer, investments, and capacity-building to make the green and just transition happen in Bangladesh. The Embassy hopes to promote equitable partnerships between Bangladeshi and Swedish actors, many of which are world-leading in green solutions. #SwedenClimateMatchmaker #SweCOP29
