We create the future Stockholm
We are the voice for the students of Stockholm and we strive for a better student city with focus on student housing, economy and student health.
Who are SSCO?
SSCO was founded on the 10th of May 1896 as Högskole- och Akademiförbundet in Stockholm. Today we are a central organization for student unions in Stockholm, consisting of 41 member unions.
In order for Stockholm’s full capacity to be utilized, SSCO works politically for more and cheaper student housing, a sustainable student economy and student health. In addition, we ensure that students are represented at the Nobel festivities, the Walpurgis celebrations at Skansen, the Walpurgis pub crawl and much more.
SSCO makes sure, that Stockholm becomes the knowledge region and student city that we want it to be.
Politics
Housing
SSCO wants Stockholm to be the obvious choice for today’s and tomorrow’s students. Stockholm therefore needs to focus on a better and more sustainable housing market.
University
For Stockholm to become the knowledge region we want, students, universities and other relevant actors must be given the right conditions. A strong student health, a strong student influence and a great work environment for all students – SSCO believes this leads to education of the highest quality.
Economy
It is expensive to stay, live and study in Stockholm. A student’s financial status shall not be an obstacle to studying in the region, Stockholm should be a student city for everyone.
