INTRODUCTION About Kastali’a Teaterskolen Kastali'a (The School of Theatre Kastali'a) is an association that offers theatre classes every weekday for local kids and youngsters. The association has 130 members in the ages between 8 and 23 years old. Kastali'a is a local player in local and regional culture and art projects and has existed for 11 years. In Kastali'a we are bringing youngsters of many different profiles together. Our members are a mix of youngsters with fewer opportunities, youngsters with social and personal challenges (some with diagnoses as ADHD, Tourette, OCD) and resourceful youngsters. We work with performances and projects in the public space and the youngsters learn to be active, relate and reflect, and to take action in their local community according to their own authenticity. Through the creative work - the youngsters are being empowered with strong social competences, personal development and more self-esteem to improve their employability. The situation in DK Using drugs is typically a youth phenomenon in Denmark. Mostly the use of drugs ends when youths enter adulthood. Studies show that the experimental use of drugs peaks in the age of 16-19 and very few try drugs for the first time in their twenties. Since 2000 there has been a drop in the use of illegal drugs, except from hash. Since 2010 the use of hash has increased. Amphetamine, cocaine and ecstasy are the most common drugs after hash. Among young adults under 25 years 42% have tried to smoke hash, 9% have tried other illegal drugs. Compared with 2000 the latest studies show that the prevalence of illegal drugs has been reduced, except from hash. While 8% of young adults under 25 years in 2000 claimed to use illegal drugs, it was only 4% in 2013. Results from a study in 2015 among young adults between 15-16 years old show a continued positive drop in the experimental use of illegal drugs – including a significant drop in the use of hash. 12% of the young adults in this group claim they have tried cannabis. In 2011 this was 18%. In Denmark the general aim is to improve the preventive effort by giving young adults better opportunities for help, support and guidance without having to be afraid of the consequences. This has to be done by establishing new initiatives on a national level as well as local. A Danish study shows that 38% of young adults believe they have a dependency relationship with information and communication technologies such as internet, smartphones and tablets. The survey describes how young adults experience withdrawal symptoms if they do not have access to technologies. In the recent years there has been an increased focus on young adults’ addiction to the virtual social world and the consequences of this development in Denmark. However, researchers agree that there is still a lack of specific research in this field and methods to prevent the excessive “unhealthy” use of technology. In Denmark there is currently a particular focus on the problematic development of digital harassment, such as bullying and ”porn revenge” where images of naked youths are unwillingly posted on social medias. Denmark is one of the countries with the highest percent of the use of technology, internet and social media. PROJECT TITLE: Empowerment practices for students’ CHOICE against Internet, drugs and gambling addiction Project number: 2016-1-PL01-KA201-026517 2 From very early ages children have their own smartphones, tablets, etc. and they bring them to school, kindergartens, etc. Researchers find it problematic that the digital world has such a great impact on the outlook on life of children and young adults. In particular the social medias has a manipulating effect on the users view on reality. A Norwegian study from 2011 shows that 56,3% of 2500 randomly selected young adults spends time on computer games on a daily basis. In this group 4,1% has a problematic addiction to gaming which results in negative consequences such as impaired school attendance, social isolation, conflicting relationship with parents, sleeping disturbances and reduced mental well-being. In the recent years social services in Denmark have received an increased amount of requests from worried parents searching for support to control their children’s problematic use of computer games. Also in this field the Danish authorities are searching for successful methods to prevent the negative consequences of young adults’ addictive behaviour. 25% of Danish pathological gamblers are under 25 years. 43% of all gamblers have considered suicide.

QUESTIONNAIRE STUDIES 2.1. GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT STUDIES a) Information about tested students Amount: 40 students Age: 15-16 Sex: 16 males/24 females b) The method of survey: Selection of schools: Randers Real Skole was selected because it is the biggest private school in Randers. It is located in the city centre of Randers (61.000 inhabitants) and has students from all over the municipality. Assentoftskolen was selected because it is the largest public primary school in our municipality. The school is located in a smaller village in the countryside in the southern part of the municipality of Randers (3500 inhabitants). The students are from Assentoft and the surrounding small villages. The municipality of Randers has 97.500 inhabitants in total. We chose the two schools because we wanted a variety in public and private schools, and geographically students from the city centre and the countryside. At both schools students in the 9th grade participated in the survey – in this way we would have the same age group in order to compare the results. c) The general conclusions after survey In general the students found the questionnaire easy to access, and it was easy for them to understand and answer the questions. Some found the case studies easy. Others found them difficult because they couldn't relate themselves to the described situations. At some of the questions they were missing the opportunity to have more than one answer opportunity or the opportunity to elaborate on their answers. Some of them believed the questions about sloth machines and casinos were not relevant, as they have not been to these places. Online games would more be their reality. The students complained about the questions on drugs: if you have answered NO in the first question - that you have NEVER used drugs, then they found it hard to continue to answer questions of their relationship to drugs, and how drugs has effected their lives, such as question no. 37. Have you felt internal concern(s), fear(s) depressed mood or you have been annoyed if you tried to limit or stop the use of drugs/intoxicants? PROJECT TITLE: Empowerment practices for students’ CHOICE against Internet, drugs and gambling addiction Project number: 2016-1-PL01-KA201-026517 4 - Many of the students have answered NO to this question, but because they had never used drugs - and not because they have answered the real question about if they have ever felt internal concerns - as they were not drug consumers they couldn't answer it properly. - They would have preferred an option where you could jump to other drug related questions - if you had answered NO to question no 28. Have you ever used drugs/intoxicants? 2.2. STATISTICAL DATA - RESULTS OF ONLINE SURVEY MANAGING EMOTIONS Question 1: I can distinguish and name … Indicators: 1= less than 5 emotions, 22 = 5-10 emotions, 8 = 10-15 emotions, 9 = more than 15 emotions The majority of the students named the 3 emotions: sad, happy and angry. A few added more, such as fearful, jealous, envious, shy, lonely, depressed, in love, worried and hopeful.

We must retain our strong cycling culture and pass it on to our children so they can get the same pleasure of moving through traf- fic on a bicycle. Unfortunately, we cycle less today than we did previously. It is quite normal for Danes to get behind the wheel of the car, even for short trips. It is com- fortable and convenient in our busy daily lives. If we are to succeed in en- couraging more people to use their bicycles, therefore, we must make it more attractive and thus easier to cycle to work, school and on leisure trips. We can achieve this by, for example, creating better cycle paths, fewer stops, secure bicycle parking spaces and new cycling facilities. In the government, we are working for a green transition and we want to promote cycling, because cycling is an inexpensive, healthy and clean form of transport. The state has never before done as much in this regard as we are doing at present.

In order to avoid repeating the financial information (with the risk of introducing incoherencies), Part C should only contain financial information not contained in the financial forms (e.g. details explaining how the cost of an action has been estimated). All forms in this section may be duplicated, so as to include all essential information. Each action described should have a clear indication of its physical target (e.g., action 1 will take place in area "X" and/or will target species "Y"). Whenever this is relevant, the location of these actions should also be identified on one or several maps which must be provided in annex. Any action that is sub-contracted should be just as clearly described as an action that will be directly carried out by the beneficiaries.

In many homes Christmas dinner consists of roast pork, red cabbage and sugar gla- zed potatoes with redcurrant jelly. Roast pork with crackling is an integral part along with the pota- toes and gravy, but the vegetables may vary from season to season. Roast pork is about as Danish as a dish can be. DEnmarK Front page Pork loin with potato skins and malt, mashed potato and red cabbage froth Chef Torsten Vildgaard, Restaurant Noma, Copenhagen Torsten Vildgaard works at Restaurant Noma which has played an active role in promoting Nordic cuisine, thus highlighting the gastronomic traditions and new raw materials of the Nordic countries. This approach is also reflected in Torsten Vildgard’s suggestion for “Roast Pork 2005” where he uses beer/malt to add an interesting flavour in combination with the pork fillet glaze. As deco- ration he suggests a malt-caramel with cabbage leaves and onion rings served with baked, hol- lowed out potatoes where the insides are mixed with butter, vinegar and milk.

    , Aviation Strategy for Denmark July 2017 Aviation Strategy for Denmark 2.| Aviation Strategy for Denmark Aviation Strategy for Denmark Published by: Ministry of Transport, Building, and Housing Frederiksholms Kanal 27 1220 Copenhagen Prepared by: Ministry of Transport, Building, and Housing ISBN internet version: 978-87-93292-32-1 Foreword | 3. Foreword In Denmark, we are used to having good flight connections throughout the year. However, this is not something we should take for granted in either the near or distant future. In Europe and the Nordic countries there is increasing competition in attracting new flight connections and more daily departures to important destinations around the world. It is vital for Denmark that we continue to increase our connectivity to the world around us. This international connectivity affects Denmark’s level of globalisation and is therefore a key parameter for our business sector, our job market and our ability to attract tourists. Objective of the Government’s aviation strategy With its new aviation strategy, the Government wishes to strengthen the basis for the establishment of more routes and more daily departures to and from Denmark and within Denmark. This will increase Denmark’s national and international connectivity to the benefit of economic growth, employment and cohesion between regions. Aviation is a special sector for Denmark. Not only does the sector create the basis for other companies’ activities and thereby enriche our society, through its domestic traffic, it creates cohesion between the Danish regions. It is therefore vital that we, to a greater degree than previously, include domestic aviation in our plans for the total transport system in Denmark.
