Solveig Adina Olena Rönn-Christiansson (11 November 1902 – 8 June 1982) was a Swedish politician (communist). She was a member of the Swedish parliament as a representative of the Gothenburg communists in two terms: 1937-40 and 1945-58. She worked as a janitor and later as a lay judge.

Solveig Rönn-Christiansson focused on social politics, such as legislation of the right to sedation during delivery and equal pay for equal work between men and women. She also motioned for the ban of spanking in the educational system, which she condemned both for being pedagogically counterproductive as well as socially discriminatory, as she claimed the spanking was mainly used toward working class students.
