Workers day in Denmark, educational reforms and female conscription becomes official

This week we ask Danes why they celebrate Workers Day and investigate a little bit about the history behind it. We also look at the new reforms to the higher education system and female conscription in the Danish military becoming official.


This is your place to share enquiries, opinions and tales of the immigrant experience in Denmark.

We want to know what/who you would like us to feature on the next episode of The Expat’s Tool Kit. Pop us a DM on Instagram or via email thedkconnectionnews@gmail.com and let us know!
