The 'Alla ska vara med' policy in schools ensures that no child is excluded from play, fostering a culture of consensus and inclusion from a young age. Flat hierarchies mean that 'vara med' is expected. Even interns are often invited to 'vara med på mötet' to listen and learn. Sweden has a strong culture of 'associations'. Being 'med i en förening' (part of an association) is a key way Swedes socialize. In the highly digitized Swedish society, being 'med' in BankID and Swish systems is almost mandatory for daily life.
