Jarl Hjalmarson Foundation

Jarl Hjalmarson Foundation

The Jarl Hjalmarson Foundation is a Democracy Foundation closely linked to the Moderate Party. It focuses on education of politicians active in the Moderate Party’s sister parties, especially women and youths engaged in politics, in countries where the aid is believed to be of best use. Different important issues about how a democratic political party works are discussed during the educational programmes, and how to work politically.

The foundation operates in Russia, Ukraine, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Turkey, Guatemala and the countries on the Balkans. Operations are also run in Belarus and in some countries in Africa and in South and Latin America.

The foundation was founded in 1994 when the Moderate Party supported the newly independent Baltic countries. The name of the foundation is chosen in homage to the late Moderate Party Chairman Jarl Hjalmarson.

Chairman of the board of the Jarl Hjalmarson Foundation is the former Swedish Minister for Foreign Affairs, Mrs Margaretha af Ugglas.
