Arbetarnas bildningsförbund (ABF) (Workers' Educational Association) is the educational section of the Swedish labour movement. ABF conducts seminars, classes and study circles on all kinds of subjects, including workshops, languages and music.[1]
ABF was founded in 1912[1] by the Swedish Social Democratic Party and some of the trade unions. Today, the main members of ABF are the Social Democrats and the Left Party.
There are ABF locations in almost every Swedish town and several in the major cities. Its headquarters are at Sveavägen street in Stockholm. In Gothenburg, the ABF building is on Järntorget square.
