The Heart and Soul of Integration Academy

Driven by Love and Purpose
The Path to Integration Academy Ängelholm

Hej!

My name is Veenda. Sixteen years ago, I moved to Sweden to be with my Swedish husband, beginning a transformative journey.

In 2023, I earned a Master's degree in Sustainability, Entrepreneurship, and Technology from Vienna University and Tomorrow University of Applied Sciences. This experience sparked my interest in the stories of others who, like me, moved for love, knowledge, and opportunity. Rather than being discouraged by their challenges, I felt inspired.

My research revealed the obstacles faced by foreign-born women in Sweden, such as language barriers, limited social networks, and qualification validation issues. With the support of mentors and family, I decided to take action and create meaningful change.

This led to the founding of Integration Academy Ängelholm, which grew from my thesis project into a tangible initiative.

Our Mission

We empower foreign-born professionals in Sweden to unlock their full potential, embrace cultural diversity, and cultivate meaningful connections. Through professional development, cultural exchange, and personal growth opportunities, we create an inclusive space where expats can succeed both professionally and personally.
