The king and queen are giving a big role to Sofia right in the beginning.
The king and queen founded Global Child Forum (Former World Child & Youth Forum) in 2009. It has been held in Stockholm and last year was first satellite forum in Dubai, where queen Silvia attended.
On 8th September will be held Global Child Forum in Pretoria, South Africa.
"The Forum, with more than 30 prominent speakers and under the patronage and active participation of Dr. Graça Machel and H.R.H. Princess Sofia of Sweden, has a special focus on building partnerships and on corporate sustainability for the protection of children’s rights in Southern Africa."m,

So, obviously after less than 3 months from the wedding, Sofia gets an own patronage event abroad. This information has been on the website of the Forum for many weeks already.
Thanks Lady Finn for the posting. I wondered why Princess Sofia was not listed in the calendar past the visit to their Duchy. I wish her well. CG said in his toast at the wedding that they were very proud of her. She will not disappoint them.
