Ellen & Lova: integration and division within the Swedish society

Today, society is divided, and this is something that can be seen in different residential areas. Different types of housing are found in different areas, which means that the population is divided according to economic conditions. Through this dividing, children with the same socio-economic status also end up in the same school and therefore the integration in society won’t be the same as it could be. Everything in society costs money and children from different family backgrounds have to adapt to the family's finances when it comes to performing different sports and activities. Some sports are extremely expensive, which means that not everyone has the opportunity to perform the sport they want.


We experience that in primary school you mostly went to the same school as children with the same living conditions. What we mean is that children who lived in the same area, in the same type of housing and had the same opportunities as oneself. This was noticed by the fact that most people had the same types of different toys, went to similar sports and went on similar holidays. When you start high school, all people from the community apply to different schools and then students are mixed according to interests, which makes it more integrated. Young people come from different areas in the county, those who live in the inner city and those who live further out or outside the city. itself.
 

The difficult thing is to get society integrated when the areas in society look the way they do, that everyone lives in areas with people who have the same socio-economic status. It would be strange if parents send their child to the other side of town just because that he or she could experience a different type of socio-economic status. This could be solved if different types of housing were started to be built in all areas.The different types of housing would hade to be in different price ranges, which makes it possible for more people to live in the different areas. Apartments with different costs and houses with different costs. Other homes such as townhouses or semi-detached houses would also be good to get it as integrated as possible.
