Swedish Embassy celebrates National Day in Philippines

The Embassy of Sweden celebrated its National Day with the theme 'Team Sweden: Boosted for Business and Good Health.' The event gathered Swedish companies and members of the Philippine government, public sector, and private sector to advocate for Covid-19 booster vaccination as means to move forward from the lingering effects of the pandemic.

Sweden is a country known for innovation, sustainability, and corporate social responsibility (CSR). Team Sweden — comprising the Swedish Embassy, Business Sweden, and Swedish companies — has chosen to strengthen efforts against Covid-19 by promoting booster vaccinations in the Philippines amid the country's low rate at 13 percent.
