Sportsvenska för invandrare (Sport Swedish for immigrants) is a book aimed primarily at people who recently arrived in Sweden, as immigrants or refugees.

The insight behind the book is that playing sports is one of the quickest ways to feel a sense of belonging in a new country. The book is a learning tool for sports vocabulary, aimed at helping people quickly be able to communicate with their new team members.

The book was used in several Swedish language courses, printed in three editions in more than 20.000 copies, and the initiative won multiple prizes globally.

The project has a significant and lasting cultural impact. Learn more from Swedish national radio, Dagens Nyheter and Göteborgs-posten or read the full articles below.
