Navigating the Unemployment Insurance Landscape as a Creative Professional

​How do you secure your financial stability between projects when your career is a mix of freelance assignments, business ownership, and artistic practice? We are joined by Ulrika Malmenklev, an insurance specialist from Unionen A-Kassan with over 20 years of expertise in the cultural sector.

​During this session, we will explore the vital importance of membership and take a deep dive into the new unemployment insurance regulations that took effect on October 1, 2025. Ulrika will guide us through the updated rules specifically for self-employed individuals and contractors within the arts, providing clarity on how to protect your livelihood when a project ends.
