SVT profiles Amanda Lind, the Green Party’s co-leader, who went from a municipal office to what has been described as Sweden’s toughest political job after developing her own flight tax proposal.
Lind joined the Green Party at 19, trained as a psychologist and quickly rose through local politics.
The profile examines whether Lind can advance her ambitious climate policies if Magdalena Andersson leads the government after the election, including whether climate priorities could take precedence over the price of petrol.
Lind is also known for her interest in board games.
