-“My colourful lectures and workshops focus on feedback as a tool for organizations that want to build a healthy culture and develop. I normally hold them on behalf of the Feedback Academy. A major focus in my approach to feedback is the importance of receiving feedback constructively and listening from a perspective based on goodwill.”

Per Blomstrand, Lina Eiserman Ålund and Reino Wikström will talk about how Lions Clubs MD101, Sweden, have been partnering with the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB) since 2004. Today, the European Union Emergency Response Coordination Centre (ERCC), is also a part of this project. Lions in Sweden purchase tents that are stored in the MSB warehouse in Kristinehamn. MSB delivers the tents on behalf of ERCC whenever a request is submitted from the United Nations or European Union, to provide shelter for people in need. Representatives from Lions Clubs in Sweden have the opportunity to participate in delivering the tents. These representatives are recruited by the tent team and approved and trained by MSB. The tent project is the most internationally recognized project operated by Lions Clubs in Sweden.
