Det finns studier som pekar ut Sverige som ett av världens mest toleranta länder och tolerans betraktas ofta som en nödvändig förutsättning för en fungerande demokrati. Men vad menas egentligen med to, professor i statsvetenskap vid Uppsala universitet. Tolerans är en nödvändig förutsättning för en fungerande demokrati. Trots detta missuppfattas toleransbegreppet ofta i både politiska och vetenskapliga diskussioner, både avsiktligt och oavsiktligt. Hur formar egentligen individers tolerans och varför kan individuella rättigheter anses som viktigare än grupprättigheter i en värld där den politiska toleransen hotas? Om detta handlar Sten Widmans presentation. , professor i islamisk teologi och filosofi vid Uppsala universitet.

The aim is to find out which strategies have been successfully used to handle vAccording to studies conducted by the (WVS), Sweden can be considered the world's most gender equal country. This affects our view on sexual and reproductive rights, such as sex before marriage and abortion. Healthcare professionals are encouraged to use gender equality in their work while also providing a culture-sensitive care.
