ABOUT ME

My name is Jessica Pettersson and I was born in 1971 in Skene, a village I still live in. Skene has about 5000 inhabitants and is located in Mark Municipality, about 50 km southeast of Gothenburg in Sweden. The Municipality has about 34,000 inhabitants and is almost idyllic with its beautiful nature, valleys, mountains and lakes. Many artists live here and have found inspiration in this environment. There are plenty of cultural experiences here as well as sports and leisure activities. This is probably why I've stayed in the village all these years. There are several cities close to Mark Municipality, so if you aren´t satisfied with what´s offered here you can go to these cities. Some of the cities are by the sea with archipelagos and beaches.

Culture is my passion; mainly art, theatre, film and music. I like almost all music and I often listen to metal rock and classical music. Other interests include architecture, history,  philosophy, politics, psychology, the nature and animals, gardening, photography, creating digital paintings in my computer, writing poetry and short stories, reading, traveling, food and wine, exercising (moderately), friends and social media.

In upper secondary school,  I studied Economics for three years. After that Art education, Graphic design & illustration and Advertising design at RMI-Bergh´s private college in Stockholm. English studies at Mills College near San Fransisco in the US. Data training on pc and mac regarding graphic design, administration, writing and web design. Courses; The Swedish language at work, Writing (poetry and short stories), Philosophy, Mythology, Society in change, Ethics of our time, Politics and municipal laws etc.

I worked in the care of the elderly for many years while studying art and design. After that, I have worked with administration, information and graphic design at printing companies, IT agency, product development company and at a large school with upper secondary school, post-secondary- and university education.

Due to many years of physical health problems, I received a limited-time early retirement pension in 2003. 2009, this early retirement pension became permanent. This pension can be terminated if Swedish healthcare takes its responsibility.

In association life, I have been chairman for a few years in the early 2000s, in a residential area through the Tenant Association (Hyresgästföreningen). At this time, I also played amateur theatre for large audiences through ABF Mark's Theatre Group. At some point I was asked to do the stage design, the front page illustration of the program brochure. The same illustration was also used as printing on t-shirts, puzzles, etc.

Around 2003 I started to take a lot of interest in politics when I saw shortcomings here and there in society, because of my own experiences. I had contact with parliamentary parties and the government because I wanted to change rules and laws on certain important issues. Through parliament politicians, I got a report in the government. This made the Minister of Labour contact me with a letter. I ended up in the national news a number of times. After this achievement, I was involved in changing outdated and illogical rules in my union Kommunal.


My political career officially started in 2006, when I joined the Green Party in the Mark Municipality. I have had many internal assignments at the Municipal level in the party; secretary, board member, member of the Nomination Committee, controller and webmaster. I have also been a candidate in the congress for the party board at the national level and  I helped the party with important national issues in counsels. My external political assignments for the party have been; The Education Committee, Juryman in the District Court, Cultural- and Leisure Committee and its Working Committee, The Municipal Council's Nomination Committee, The Municipal Council, The Technology- and Service Committee and its Working Committee. I have also participated in a network for the Green Party in the County Council regarding healthcare policy.

At the end of 2018, I left the Green Party because I didn´t think the party's views were in line with mine anymore. I wouldn't want to join any party now, because the politicians don't seem to represent the people anymore

Between 2017 and 2020, I participated in a non-political psychiatric council in the County Council, which in many ways affects the psychiatric management and politicians in order for patients to get a better psychiatric health care.

In February 2020, I started a one-day training for Living Library. Former patients, like me, with great patient experience would have the task of getting the hospital staff at Borås Lasarett (hospital) to see things from the patient's point of view. The treatment is important as well as the patients' rights. Unfortunately, Living Library had to be suspended for the time being due to Covid-19.

When Covid-19 came, created by the Deep State to destroy humanity, I became a member in January 2021 in The International Association to Confront Coronavirus and Global Violations Officials (I.A.C.C.O) https://www.iacco.fr/. This is an organization for doctors, judges, lawyers, human rights defenders, police officers etc to hold those guilty accountable. I was tasked by the President of the organization to write a testimony about the corrupt judiciary in Sweden and after that documents were submitted to enable prosecution in the International Criminal Court in The Hague.
