What Silence Means in Public Affairs
Sweden’s political culture is changing – and so are the points of influence. With more emphasis on SOUs (government inquiries) and early-stage consultations, the most effective advocacy now happens well before a proposal reaches the Riksdag.
At Nord, we guide clients to engage earlier, listen deeper, and contribute meaningfully to policy shaping, not just lobbying.
