On the International Women's Day, Aftonbladet has listed ten of the country's most prominent people - who in different ways take over Sweden and the world.
1. Crown Princess Victoria, 37, the Crown Princess:
Sweden's future head of state and one of the most popular people. According to SOM surveys, Crown Princess Victoria has been that public person in Sweden who has had the highest trust from the Swedish people.
What are your strongest driving forces?
- I want to be able to continue contributing to society and it's development, for example by bringing together people from different parts, which creates a dynamism and creativity that take Sweden forward. It is an incredible privilege to meet so many interesting people and activities. Sweden is in many ways an amazing country! I can use the apolitical, representative and unifying force that my mission has to make a difference and it's very motivating.
How does the Crown Princess see her role?
- I hope to be a link and enabler to illuminate different areas and issues that need assistance or given special attention. An important part
in the role is to draw attention to important social issues. It can be about creating opportunities for people with different backgrounds, coming from different places and have different views on things, they are given the opportunity to meet. Something else I feel strongly about is working to combat exclusion.
- It is disturbing when young people feel despair and alienation. We must create conditions so that the younger generation rightly is able to look positively and confidently to the future.
