This session is hosted by Region Kronoberg, a county located in the south of Sweden, three hours by car from Gothenburg. A “Kronobergare” is often characterised as a serious and energetic person who is modest with their effort. The Region provides health care for the 200.000 inhabitants in the county of Kronoberg, which consists of eight municipalities. The county is known for industry and service based on forestry and digitalisation, glass, furniture, design, forests and lakes. The county seat of Växjö is home to Linnaeus University, which Region Kronoberg works closely with. The small size of the county enables strong and efficient co-production and cooperation. This is defined as 13 promises in the development health care strategy Closer to the population.
