The Swedish Association for Hunting (Swedish: Svenska Jägareförbundet) is the largest organization in Sweden, founded in 1830, that brings together hunters and focuses on sustainable hunting, nature conservation, and natural resource management. The association promotes principles of responsible hunting, ensuring the preservation of biodiversity and wildlife populations. It actively engages in hunter education by offering courses and exams for licensing, as well as supporting scientific research in ecology and hunting. Additionally, the organization advocates for hunters' interests at national and international levels, collaborating with government bodies and environmental groups.
The association also plays a significant role in promoting hunting as part of cultural heritage and a tool for nature conservation. It organizes events, publishes magazines and other materials, and provides its members with access to educational resources and insurance programs. Through international cooperation, the association facilitates the exchange of knowledge and best practices in hunting and environmental conservation. In this way, the Swedish Association for Hunting combines tradition with modern ecological approaches, making hunting sustainable and socially acceptable.
