Radio Sweden Weekly: Meet the parents behind Skärholmen's night patrols

Radio Sweden - Un podcast de Sveriges Radio

It's been almost three months since the deadly shooting in Skärholmen in Stockholm's south west, where a father was killed in front of his 12-year-old son. We speak to the leaders of Blåuggla, a volunteer group that does night patrols in Skärholmen, to hear how the community's feeling. And: 50 years ago, Sweden became the first country in the world to introduce paid parental leave for both mums and dads — and now even grandparents and family friends will be able to take time off work for caring duties. We hear about this change to the parental leave scheme.Also: It's emerged that a fully-vaccinated child died after being infected with TBE last year, we speak to an expert on communicable diseases to find out more. And change is on the way for the Eurovision Song Contest following the controversies at this year's event in Malmö. We hear from the European Broadcasting Union's media director Jean Philip De Tender.Presenters: Michael Walsh and Dave RussellProducer: Dave Russell
