Meet the Radio Correspondents 2026

Sveriges Radio's foreign correspondents are on the ground when and where events happen. From around the world, they deliver both rapid news reporting and in-depth analysis and background - with the aim of making the world more comprehensible.

Sveriges Radio has the largest correspondent network in the Nordic region: 20 correspondents worldwide and around ten staff members in Stockholm. A central mission is to cover events that might otherwise fall into media obscurity.

"Sveriges Radio has prioritized international coverage for many years. At a time when journalism and freedom of expression are under attack in an increasing number of countries, it is of utmost importance to be on the ground. To understand the world better, we need both knowledge and presence. With a broad network of correspondents, we are well positioned to contribute to this." - Anders Pontara, Head of Foreign News Ekot, Sveriges Radio

Performance length: 1 hour 15 minutes, followed by discussion 30 minutes. Participating correspondents will be announced in early autumn. Arranged by Riksteatern in collaboration with Sveriges Radio.
