On October 23, 30 participants joined the Diversity Walk, organized by Work & Life Denmark with partners. Here are some of the impressions from the day (copyright International House, British Council and Work & Life Denmark).
About Copenhagen Diversity Walk
The Diversity walk was initiated by British Council that asked Work & Life Denmark to organize the Copenhagen event. This was done in close collaboration with the chosen partners that the participants visited:
International House (a one-stop shop for foreigners in Denmark)
Kvinfo (the Danish organisation of information on gender, equality and diversity)
The Church association for the Inner Mission in Denmark
The World Culture Center (Verdenskulturcentret – the cultural center in Copenhagen with a special focus on ethnic minorities)
Below is a collection of photos taken during the event.
