  • 'Dementia- Friendly' Homes
    Sweden’s Queen Silvia joins Ikea chief to design ‘dementia- friendly’ homes Oliver Moody, Berlin Tuesday December 31 2019, 12.01am, The Times The low-cost SilviaBo flats were inspired by Queen Silvia’s experience of caring for her mother GETTY IMAGES; SILVIABO In the early 1990s Queen Silvia of Sweden watched Alzheimer’s disease pull apart the threads of her mother’s mind. A quarter of a century later the experience has informed the design of a set of dementia-friendly prefabricated apartments that could soon be erected in Britain. The queen, together with the founder of the Ikea furniture chain, drew up the plans for the first prototypes of low-cost modular flats to ensure that patients and their carers could continue to live in their own homes. 1 The six model apartments in Stockholm are a pilot for a concept that is intended to be spread across Scandinavia and into the UK over the next few years. “In Sweden the number of people aged 80 or over will increase by 85 per cent from 2015 to 2030,” Jonas Spangenberg, chief executive of BoKlok, the building company that made them, said. “Society needs to find a solution where more people can stay at home for longer; and actually people want to stay in their own home. This is also much cheaper for everybody.” The idea emerged several years ago when Ingvar Kamprad, the Ikea billionaire, made a large donation to Queen Silvia’s dementia charity, the Silviahemmet foundation. After some thought the pair decided to spend the money on designing affordable ready-built housing for older couples that could be easily adapted to their needs if one of them were to develop dementia.

The thesis explores the importance of these events for queens as both a personal and public experience, and questions the existence of distinctly Western and Eastern styles of queenship. A comparative study of ‘Eastern’ and ‘Western’ ceremony in the sixteenth century has never been attempted before and sixteenth- century Polish queens usually do not appear in any collective works about queenship, even those which claim to have a pan-European focus.

  • Federal President Joachim Gauck at the State Banquet in Honour of King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia of Sweden at Schloss Bellevue on 5 October 2016
    The speech online: www.bundespraesident.de page 1 to 3 Federal President Joachim Gauck at the State Banquet in honour of King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia of Sweden at Schloss Bellevue on 5 October 2016 It is a great delight for me to welcome you to your first state visit to Germany for 23 years and your first visit to Schloss Bellevue. The very fact that you are here today is a wonderful expression of the Swedish-German friendship. Both of you have deep and also personal ties with Germany. During your visit, you will no doubt see the great respect in which you and your country are held by German citizens. I myself have always felt close to Sweden, not just since my first state visit to Stockholm as Federal President in 2012. Before the fall of the Berlin Wall, your country was a country of my dreams – as it was for many East Germans. In the years of Europe’s division, countless people stood at the Baltic Sea coast in Mecklenburg and Pomerania, at the place where we East Germans could go no further. We looked out to the horizon. Somewhere on the other side of the sea, there had to be Sweden, the country which had what we could only dream of: freedom, democracy and real social justice. Today, we can say that Sweden and the happily reunified Germany share the conviction that free societies work better if they aspire to create opportunities and participation for all. This is a thought that inspires people not just in our two countries, but around the world.

What did he leave behind? My original hypothesis was that Sihanouk was a libertine and ruthless god-king who had immense pride for his country.
