Interview following Parliamentary Seminar on the Swedish Educational Law and Confessional Schools

In this interview, Ruth Nordström, president SHRL, Reinhold Falhbeck, Professor Emeritus of Labour Law at Lund University & Roger Kiska, Senior Legal Counsel, ADF, Europe, summarise the key conclusions of the seminar. 
The seminar discussed "confessionalism in teaching and education"; and the congruence between the Swedish Educational Law and the European Convention on Human Rights. Falhbeck and Kiska assert that the current Swedish Educational Law violates Article 2 and Article 9 of the European Convention on Human Rights. Nordström explains the conflict between the educational law and Article 2.
