She examines the pressures parents face, the impact on children’s mental health, and the debate over screen time and online safety.The Prime Minister's statement on Palestine and Israel divides public and parliamentary opinionsEva looks at Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen’s recent statement on what is happening in Gaza, in which she condemned Israel’s actions and its Prime MInister, but did not say Denmark would move towards recognizing a Palestinian state, nor would it change its stance on taking in children in need of medical care. With Denmark holding the EU presidency and public opinion sharply divided, Eva unpacks the political, diplomatic, and humanitarian dimensions of this complex issue and how it affects Frederiksen’s future in the Folketing.As always you can find us on Spotify, Apple Podcasts or by simply clicking the link in bio.Remember - this is your place to share enquiries, opinions and tales of the immigrant experience in Denmark - and we want to hear from you.

O 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. For non-Danes, accessing news in English is….complicated. Most news outlets are paywalled and google translate does a pretty terrible job of translating Danish to English. In collaboration with Union, we bring you ‘The Danish Connection’ - a new podcast breaking down Danish news in English! This is your place to share enquiries, opinions and tales of the immigrant experience in Denmark. Hosted by María Eva and Rachel, new episodes every Sunday.
