In today's climate of increasing questioning of human rights, solid, independent research in the field is needed more than ever. The Raoul Wallenberg Institute has long conducted some of Sweden's most solid research and education in human rights. In addition, in collaboration with Lund University, we run Sweden's oldest master's program on human rights.

The Raoul Wallenberg Institute's library is the leading library in Sweden and northern Europe in the field of human rights research. Thanks to a generous grant from the Torsten Söderberg Foundation, the library has been able to maintain an up-to-date, broad collection of literature, enabling advanced international research in human rights. The library serves as an important resource for researchers in the field, both from the Raoul Wallenberg Institute, from the surrounding area, including Lund and Malmö Universities, and as a national resource with users from all over Sweden. In addition, the library is widely used by foreign researchers whom the Institute collaborates with and supports in developing countries.
