Free webinars: Understanding Danish Culture and Society

You’ve moved to a new country, and most likely you have and will encounter culture clashes and elements of culture shock in your new everyday life. By giving you insights into the underlying values and structures of the culture and society you now live in, we wish to help you understand the differences and make your start in Denmark easier.

The programme consists of 3 webinars that will cover the following topics.

• Danish Culture, Values, Customs & Traditions
  Thursday 28. January 2021 5-6.30 pm 
• The Danish Political System & the Welfare Principles
  Thursday 25. February 5-6.30 pm 
• The Danish Labor Market & Educational System
  Thursday 25. March 5-6.30 pm 

The format of the webinars will be a mix of presentations, break-out sessions and Q&As.

All webinars are conducted by Anatolie Cantir, who is a lecturer at VIA University College. He is originally from Moldova, and have lived in Herning for more than 16 years.

Lene Møller Fløe from Ikast-Brande Kommune and Mette Klarskov Hebel from Herning Kommune will be moderating the webinars.

Participants of all three webinars will receive a certificate of participation. You are welcome to participate whether you have just arrived in Denmark, or you have lived here for several years.
