In late April, the Nordic College of Caring Science (NCCS) held their fourth international scientific conference. The theme for the conference was ‘Caring in a changing world’. The conference began 26th April with a pre-conference designed for PhD students within the academic field of caring sciences. The NCCS annual board meeting was also held on that date. The venue for the conference was Mälardalen University, situated in a new but also renovated and integrated environment in the central city of Eskilstuna, Sweden. The seats of learning received the Swedish Government'srights and status as a university in 2022. The university offered a fantastic environment for knowledge exchange and socialisation with research colleagues and friends. During the annual meeting with the NCCS board discussed the work and development of the journal. Additionally, the new board was elected, and Associate Professor Mats Holmberg became NCCS's new chairperson.
