Fittja is a residential outer suburb of Stockholm, some 20 km south-west of the city and accessible on the metro.
It was built in the early 1970s as part of a programme to reduce the housing shortage in the Stockholm area.
Fittja was one of 7 places in Sweden nominated for the prize Youth Municipality of the Year 2003 for its efforts for its young residents.

The certificate from Bangladesh is undated and merely states that the complainant arrived to the clinic on 15 October 2000, after being subjected to physical torture, and was treated for physical injuries and mental depression.
The certificate from Fittja does not include an assessment of whether the author was tortured and does not mention physical injuries or post-traumatic stress disorder.
Before the Aliens Appeals Board, he submitted a medical certificate from the Fittja health care centre, which states that he is severely traumatised; it does not state that he suffers from PTSD or that he contemplated suicide.

 From Sweden to South Africa   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
The counseling bureau is for women only and a majority of the visitors are immigrating women; in Fittja 70% of the population are immigrants.
In a project called "Källan" (=the source), which is totally connected to the women’s counseling bureau, the network and the health of women with diffuse symptoms are examined.
The future plans are to mobilize the women to build co-operatives of their own, maybe with the sewing group or the cooking group as a starting-point.

Fittja har blivit en slags symbol för den nya delen av den svenska verkligheten, där inte längre det gamla lutherska enhetssamhället dominerar.

 Managing a culturally diverse organization: case studies of Stockholm public dental service and Fittja health center
To reach this purpose we have investigated the benefits and the problems of a culturally diverse organization as well as the effective management practices and the leadership qualities necessary for managing a culturally diverse organization.
Empirical data collected are based on interviews with managers of two culturally diverse organizations: Stockholm Public Dental Service and Fittja Health Center.
Findings of this study demonstrate that a multicultural organization can suffer from problems such as stereotyping and prejudicing, difficulty of communicating and predicting behavior, and in-built discriminatory processes.

 Axess, a magazine for the liberal arts and social sciences
Mahmoud Pirouzram at the Swedish Association of Ethnic Entrepreneurs (IFS) in Fittja claims that Fittja is divided into two parts by the major road to Flemingsberg, which forms a boundary between poverty and wealth.
When I talk to Juan Velasques, an ethnogeographer who has done research in Fittja, he tells me that the reason the municipal institutions resisted the proposal for a market hall is that it was presented as a "bazaar," and a bazaar, they felt, is aimed only at immigrants—it means "Istanbulisation," more litter, and less integration.
Parvaneh Sharif, an area developer in Fittja with a room next to Pirouzram's, also thinks that Medborgarkontoret's fine premises should be used in a different way.
