Unless you are a trained professional in search and rescue Japan does not need any foreign volunteers. Instead, consider donating money, blood, food, or clothing to any of the many various organizations set up to help Japan. You can probably find a local group in Sweden who are collecting donations right now. If you absolutely must volunteer, then volunteer with these organizations. But there is nothing set up for sending foreigners to Japan to help because the Japanese do not need that sort of help. They don't need people who don't understand Japanese working in the refugee shelter.
