Join a manifestation against the Aliens Act!

The PhD Chapter of THS (student union of Kungliga Tekniska högskolan) and the Doctoral Students' Association of Medicinska Föreningen (student union of Karolinska Institutet) organize a manifestation against the Aliens Act. Join them!

The manifestation takes place on May 15, and starts at Sergels torg in Stockholm.

The 2021 changes to the Aliens Act (utlänningslagen) and its interpretation by the Migration Agency has made it very difficult for non-EU/EEA PhD Students and researchers to gain permanent residency after completing four years of PhD studies or working in Sweden.

Besides unfairly damaging the lives and careers of these brilliant, hard-working people, this is disastrous for Sweden’s research and industry, which benefits greatly from the international exchange of research, ideas and competence. This peaceful manifestation is a way of letting all those who are affected or outraged by the changes know we make a public statement and stand together in solidarity.
