Swedish Agency for Youth and Civil Society

Swedish Agency for Youth and Civil Society (Swedish: Myndigheten för ungdoms- och civilsamhällesfrågor, MUCF)[1] is a Swedish government agency which deals with youth policy and issues relating to Swedish civil society.

[3] The agency distributes between 350 and 600 million SEK annually to about 400 civil society organisations.

[2][4] According to an evaluation by the Swedish Agency for Public Management, about half the organisations receiving funding from MUCF state that they are dependent upon state funding to a great or very great extent and that their economical dependence upon state grants has been increasing since 2014.

Of the fifty investigated ethnic-community organisations, four stated their only source of income was from MUCF.

[5] Late 2017 announcement of planned relocation to Växjö led to resignation of many employees.
