Last Week in Denmark
Curious about what’s really happening in Denmark — and how it affects your life here? Each week, two hosts from the LWID community talk through the top news stories and developments — in English — sharing personal insights and international perspectives. It’s a clear and accessible conversation about life in Denmark, made for people who live here but didn’t grow up here. Last Week In Denmark is a volunteer-driven media project with a simple mission: to empower people through information.
With a mix of short summaries, thoughtful discussion, and context you can actually use, we cover everything from housing and healthcare to politics. Whether you're new to Denmark or have been here for years, this is your go-to bite-sized update on what’s happening — and why it matters to you. Thank you for helping us grow.

Are adoptees in Denmark citizens? (replay, S3E6)
Adoptees or immigrants? In this highlight from season 3, Golda and Katie explore the Danish government’s attempt to reclassify internationally adopted citizens as immigrants under a welfare policy update. The move, which would have applied retroactively to 1968, sparked outrage and confusion. Many adoptees—raised entirely in Denmark—were left questioning their citizenship.
During season break we're revisiting some of the most popular segments from season 3. We'll be back with season 4 in August!
