    In particular in the context of the build-up of the Swedish Total Defence, the Swedish Red Cross has been in continuous dialogue with government partners and public authorities to ensure knowledge and understanding of humanitarian challenges within the field of disaster response.

    During the period since the adoption of the resolution, the Swedish Red Cross has published two broad policy reports on the need for strengthened policies and laws within the field of disaster management and armed conflict: “Människan i krisen” (https://www.rodakorset.se/siteassets/dokument/om-oss/fakta-och-standpunkter/rapporter/manniskan-i-krisen/manniskan-i-krisen_rapport.pdf) and “Värn i allvarstider” (https://www.rodakorset.se/siteassets/dokument/om-oss/fakta-och-standpunkter/rapporter/srk_varn_i_allvarstider_2024.pdf). Both of these call for a review and a strengthening of Swedish domestic legislative frameworks as pertaining to all types of disasters and crises, including specific recommendations on how policies can be improved, as well as including recommendations for Sweden to implement measures specified in the IDRL guidelines.

    Further, the Swedish Red Cross has carried out a workshop on how disaster laws can be strengthened in Sweden, along the lines of the IDRL guidelines. The workshop was carried out with participation from representatives from the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB), as well as with representation from one of the IFRC’s disaster law focal points.
