The paper shows selected issues on the assumptions of the current and future operation of the folk high schools in Sweden, also recalling selected post-war publications on this subject, which appeared in the Polish language or have been prepared by the Poles for the Swedish reader. The issue was presented from the point of view of a teacher of one of the institutions of this sort – Albins folkhögskola in Landskrona (Skåne). The author shows extensively educational activities of her own institution for adult population of the region. She does this on the background of the main directions of the changes taking place in the Swedish folk high schools.
