At the beginning of June, I attended "Järvaveckan" (Jaerva week) democracy festival in Stockholm. It is a smaller demofest started by Ahmed Abdirahman, who has an impressive story of coming to Sweden as a teenager from Somalia. After all his education and work, Ahmed started this festival in order to bring more people together and to promote democratic and civic engagement in areas of Stockholm with a larger number of residents with immigration history and where there are different social problems such as violent crimes, unemployment, lack of voting during elections.
