Swedish Association of International Affairs (SAIA) (Swedish: Utrikespolitiska Förbundet Sverige (UFS)) is an umbrella organization for the associations of international affairs that can be found in most of the major university cities in Sweden.
The main focus of its member organizations is the furthering of debate of international issues at the respective universities through lectures with politicians, diplomats, academics, activists, and others.
[1] The first member organization of UFS, the Uppsala Student Association for the League of Nations, was founded in 1925.
Further, SAIA arranges meetings between the member associations' organizing committees, as well as the Annual Conference on Foreign Affairs (Swedish: Utrikespolitiskt Konvent), which is open to all members of the associations and consists of workshops and lectures.
The association also cooperates closely with the Swedish Institute for International Affairs (UI).
