The Social Democratic Students of Sweden (Swedish: Socialdemokratiska Studentförbundet [sʊsɪˈɑ̂ːldɛmʊˌkrɑːtɪska stɵˈdɛ̂nːtfœrˌbɵndɛt] ⓘ; S-Studenter) is the student organisation of the Swedish Social Democratic Party. abbr. SSF, the acronym is most commonly used in international organisations such as IUSY or YES.
Created again in 1990, the organisation today has about 2000 members spread out over the country, most of them students at either universities or poly-technics.
The Social Democratic Students of Sweden focuses on questions connected to higher education but also organises seminars and debates on various topics such as: international affairs, gender equality, discrimination and equality at the labour market. In recent years the organisation has become a strong voice in the ideological debate within the Swedish Labour Movement. The Social Democratic Students of Sweden was the first social democratic organisation to argue for a Swedish EU (EC) membership and also the first to call for a common European currency. The organisation also has a strong relationship with the movement for democracy in Myanmar, with which it has worked in partnership with since 1996.
