The Danish Connection

How do you access news in Denmark if you don’t speak Danish?

There are 652,495 foreign citizens living in Denmark. We bring you Danish news in English every Sunday to help you stay informed about the country you live in.

This week on The Danish Connection, we look at why so many nurses are leaving the profession in Denmark with journalist Gabriel Morris, whose article investigating the issue appeared in The Copenhagen Post this week.

We unpack the major reforms planned for the unemployment sector, and what poverty looks like for the most deprived children in Copenhagen.

All this, plus cultural tips and hot-takes on the week’s  headlines.
