Pressemeddelelse fra Ukraine House in Denmark
We often say “people are key” or “youth is the future” but how can we support them through all the turbulence of the present and prepare for the future, all amidst the largest war on the European continent since WWII? Surviving the war, the housing crisis, recession, climate change, mental health issues. According to the Global Bildung Network, Bildung in Denmark served as the combination of the education and knowledge necessary to thrive in one’s society, and the moral and emotional maturity to be both a team player and have personal autonomy, knowing one’s roots and being able to imagine and co-create the future. Bildung has been instrumental in building the strong democratic and prosperous Denmark we know.
In Ukraine, the model of Prosvita or Enlightenment from the early 20th century and practices of the major investors into Ukrainian culture among the societal, religious and business leaders of the past have enabled Ukrainians to persevere against all persecutions of totalitarianism and build a strong civil society in the 21st century.
What can we learn from the Danish and Ukrainian models of responsible citizenship identity formation from the past, that can help ensure a continuously thriving society in Denmark and a resilient, ready to any challenges, dynamic society in Ukraine? How can we support each other in educational and culture development models ensuring the democratic and peaceful future for Europe?
In this session we will explore Ukrainian and Danish models from the past that have nurtured particular Danish and Ukrainian identities and how they may evolve in the future:
