General Information
Rosengårds Folkets Hus (People´s House of Rosengård)is a NGO, registered as a non-profit association. We currently have 22 member associations and several individual shareholders. A directive board makes all the decisions, which are carried out by one employee so far. Year 2010: no budget, due to restructuring of the board. Previous funding (amounting to ~100 000 Euros/year) from the Department of Culture & Leisure in the city of Malmö, Sweden. We organize cultural events (such as a local festival, music classes, an international women´s choir, etc), seminars, film screenings (World Wide Cinema) and national exchanges.
Mission and Objectives

The main mission of Rosengårds Folkets Hus is to unite inhabitants in this multicultural neighbourhood where we function, and to provide a place for social gatherings to take place. Traditionally, we supply an arena where other associations can hold their meetings and festivities.
We also strive to supply music, dance and drama lessons, study groups, integration between ethnicities and leisure activities such as nature outings.

Main Projects / Activities

The main project 2011 will be "World Wide Cinema", wherein Rosengårds Folkets Hus will provide live streaming of concerts, opera, sports, perhaps religious events, etc. This project will be done in cooperation with Rinkeby Folkets Hus, which is a similar association situated in another multicultural neighbourhood in Stockholm, Sweden.
During year 2011, we also hope to re-lance the local festival called "Rosengårdsdagen", which is a one-day event that has taken place for over 10 years as a gathering of all local and ethnic associations.
Our main ambition at the moment is to find a new location for our "house" (People´s of Rosengård).
