Have you seen the Netflix series Borgen?  Even though the show is fictional it portrays the Danish political community quite accurately. It’s a show full of dilemmas.  Can you maintain power and still maintain your integrity?  How does one secure a healthy work-life balance?  How do you navigate in a world of compromises? 

Join us on the On Location Borgen Tour and walk in the footsteps of Birgitte Nyborg, Katrine Fønsmark, and Kasper Juul and learn about Danish society.  Aside from exploring the locations and hearing stories from the set, we will also cover topics such as:

• The real events that inspired different episodes of Borgen.

• What exactly is a welfare state?

• How do equality, gender double standards, and #metoo influence politics?

• What are the standards for a free press and free speech in modern society?

• What does a high-trust society look like in practice?
