  • The Good Experiences
    - Welcome to the good experiences In Denmark, there are 408 campsites with motorhome sites with all the required facilities. The 408 campsites are spread out all over Denmark, so you are never further than approx. 20 km from the nearest motorhome site, no matter where you are in the country. You can arrive at a motorhome site at any time of the day or night. The basic facility offered by a motorhome site is an even, stable pitch on which to park the motorhome. You then have the option of paying for electricity, access to a toilet and shower, filling your water tank with clean water and emptying your waste tank. The cost of staying at one of the many motorhome sites varies from site to site. Some motorhome sites, for example, charge an hourly rate of DKK 8 for the basic pitch, while others charge DKK 100 for the period from 8 pm to 10 am for the basic pitch. The 408 campsites with motorhome sites allow you to experience everything Denmark has to offer as a country. You can visit old towns and cities and experience the unique nature such as Møns Klint, Skagen, Bornholm or Thy National Park, the beaches on the west coast, the Baltic and the Kattegat or farm shops selling local produce. Motorhome Guide Denmark welcomes you to wonderful experiences.

Though merely whetting our appetites, this taster has confi rmed Denmark’s infl uential contribution to our continent’s cultural wealth. Happily, Denmark’s contribution to the European Union is far more extensive and will, undoubtedly, be in the spotlight throughout the fi rst half of 2012! A modern state, where European and international sea routes converge, Denmark has frequently drawn on its talents and fl ourishing economy to make its own, distinctive mark. It is in tune with the priorities for 2020: competitiveness, social inclusion and the need for ecologically sustainable change.

  • Partner Search from Roskilde Municipality
    Partner search from Roskilde Municipality (Preliminary) Title of the Digital lower secondary schools explore new ways of learning project Outline of the project idea The Municipality of Roskilde has the ambition to develop new learning methods with digital devices and platforms. Mobile technologies, cloud-based free tools, and readily available resources and networks are all potentials in today’s knowledge society. These can contribute to the development of new skills for children, in the same way that ICT can support inclusive learning environments to integrate pupils of different social and cultural backgrounds or different sexes. A gap, however, exists between what is possible and what is acceptable and prevalent in lower secondary school as well as in teacher training. This is especially noticeable when it comes to the new kinds of net-based collaborative authorships, methods of publication, and knowledge sharing communities. The lower secondary schools are experiencing problems with the use of other people’s materials on the internet, and with the ability of pupils/students to evaluate information. Simultaneously, the teachers in general are lacking evaluation tools to match the new ways in which knowledge is gained. The project will develop: • Principles for pedagogical design to manage the potentials and challenges when pupils and students are seeking information, gathering materials, sharing knowledge, and collaborating while using readily available digital resources, tools, and environments on the internet. • Principles for digitally supported inclusive teaching methods to integrate pupils of different social and cultural backgrounds. • A model of school development for the pedagogical integration of ICT in various subjects. Roskilde Municipality is especially interested in digitalization in the subjects mathematics, english and german language.

Everyday people who want to be detoxified acutely attend the Emergency-Department. Initiatives in the municipalities for acute-care seem scarcely used; this study will investigate how the municipalities’ effort can be utilized in collaboration with other stakeholders in the care-system and how this influences the evaluation of the care. During the detoxification process the blood-alcohol-level is decreasing and it is necessary to observe the patient to ensure that he/she does not develop withdrawal-symptoms. Withdrawal-symptoms must be treated as they can develop to potential life-threatening delirium tremens and detoxification cramps. Left untreated any future withdrawal-symptoms will worsen and thereby increase the risk of future delirium tremens and cramps. Most important though is that the decision to stay sober is easier when one does not have withdrawal-symptoms and thus, the chance of success increases. In Denmark it is usual the GP who is responsible for the medical treatment of people with acute detoxification without any withdrawal-symptoms; when the detoxification is not life- threatening it is a municipal task.

  • The Influence of Political Structures and Local Community Engagement on Placemaking in Train Stations a Case Study of Glostrup M
    The influence of political structures and local community engagement on placemaking in train stations A case study of Glostrup Multifunctional Station Sustainable Cities Thesis Aalborg University of Copenhagen Mohammad Ghannam Study No. 2094407 Date: October 2th, 2019 Abstract Traditionally the development of a train station focuses on transportation manners for commuters. The challenge in modern train stations is the quality of the public space, which adds value to citizens through sustainable measures. It is crucial to strengthen participation for better development of train stations. There is a lack of involvement, and throughout the thesis, it is demonstrated that the argument is two- folded. The first one is local, about local development, inclusion, and achieving locally sustainable objectives. The other is about the system level. In order to handle the urbanization, new ways of governing are fundamental to achieve an optimal train station that comprehends all aspects of the transportation system. In a paradigm of transport where time-travel is at the center, there is not enough focus on the quality of the trip as a whole for people. The quality of the space is affected by the existing infrastructure that puts some limitations on the recreation of the place. Other challenging aspects of urban spaces, at the stations, are better transport modes, energy-efficiency, pollution reduction and policy framework. The focus on train stations is relevant for the development of sustainable cities since it offers quality of life, efficient connectivity, optimal and innovative use of public spaces and reduction of human footprint. The purpose of this thesis is to explore the influence of the political structure and the local community concerning strengthening placemaking in train stations.

  • Strategic Energy Planning in Denmark at Municipal And
    STRATEGIC ENERGY PLANNING IN DENMARK AT MUNICIPAL AND REGIONAL LEVEL STRATEGIC ENERGY PLANNING IN DENMARK AT MUNICIPAL AND REGIONAL LEVEL STRATEGIC ENERGY PLANNING IN DENMARK AT MUNICIPAL AND REGIONAL LEVEL STRATEGIC ENERGY PLANNING IN DENMARK AT MUNICIPAL AND REGIONAL LEVEL STRATEGIC ENERGY PLANNING IN DENMARK AT MUNICIPAL AND REGIONAL LEVEL The Danish government’s long-term vision is that Denmark becomes independent of fossil fuels. Municipalities have the local knowledge that can ensure political anchoring and commitment from citizens and local businesses to the green transition of the energy system and the economy. In their capacity as local planning and land-use authority, as owner of supply and transport companies, and as a major consumer, the municipalities are in a unique position to facilitate change. A program with 3.3 mill. EUR was launched in 2014 to support municipal strategic energy planning, providing a 50% grant for the projects. Strengthening partnerships: Cost-effective transition to green growth: • Vertically – state, region, municipality • Mapping energy efficiency and renewable energy resources • Horizontally – across municipalities • Analysing energy futures and strategic choices • Locally – businesses, supply companies, municipality • Setting targets and action plans • Internally – municipal administrations • Demonstrating green solutions • Democratically – citizens and interest organisations In total, 14 partnership projects for strategic energy planning were initiated with each their unique partnership structure and with each their individual energy perspective. The support program aimed at demonstrating different types of partnerships and tackle different aspects of a cost-effective transition to green growth. The 14 projects include 6 regional projects (in the five Danish regions) and 8 projects involving a smaller number of municipalities.
