Visit to the Danish Embassy

We had a very stimulating visit to the Danish embassy this morning. Thank you to Anne and her colleagues for giving us an insight into how Denmark structures its diplomatic service and how it is responding to the challenges posed by globalisation.

It was great to get practitioners' perspectives on the continuing importance of the embassy for cementing relations between fellow EU member states and to learn about how the embassy promotes Danish culture by working with partners in Britain.

The visit helped us to place some of the themes of our module in a concrete setting and provided illustrations to add some colour and content to our reading lists.

Finally, a big thank you to Sophie for setting up this opportunity for us.
