What does it mean to be subjected to torture, and not least to survive torture?

We will try to learn more about this on Thursday, January 15, 2026. In collaboration with the IRCT (International Rehabilitation Council for Torture Victims), we are holding an event to shed light on the phenomenon of war at a deeper level than news headlines. Behind and in the midst of every war and conflict are people who make decisions and people who must live with the consequences of those decisions.

The event is our attempt to put a face to decision-makers and hand over – supplemented by experts in the field.

The hope is that we can become wiser about the political considerations surrounding war—but in particular, that we can become wiser about the reality in which so many of our fellow human beings live.

Because even though wars change form, the consequences remain the same; it is still real people who are left behind with the very real consequences of war on both body and soul.

In addition to presentations by torture survivors and experts, the evening will feature a conversation with former foreign ministers Mogens Lykketoft and Martin Lidegaard, Paula Larrins.

We'll provide the coffee!

New online universe to strengthen dialogue on climate, nature, and the environment

How can we talk constructively with each other about climate, the environment, and nature when we have different and sometimes conflicting attitudes and interests?

With the Green Dialogue Coffee project, we have in recent years created dialogue meetings on nature, climate, and environmental issues across the country. Now we are taking the next step and launching a new online learning universe that will make these experiences available to even more people.

The new online universe has been developed as an interactive learning space where users can explore some of the most controversial green disagreements in Denmark. The focus here is on nuances, dilemmas, and different perspectives rather than quick answers and sharp fronts.

A key element is an interactive map of Denmark featuring cases from almost every part of the country. The map is based on specific conflicts and disagreements about nature, climate, and the environment, such as wolves, bottom trawling, wild boar fencing, and CO2 storage, where each case provides insight into the values and interests that clash.

The universe also contains dialogue exercises, reflection questions, videos, and articles that can be used by educators, young people, organizations, and other curious minds. The content has been developed with a focus on learning, active participation, and democratic education, and can be used both individually and collectively.

The universe will be continuously expanded with new content so that the platform always reflects the needs, experiences, and dilemmas we encounter in our work with Green Dialogue Coffee around Denmark.

With the new online universe, we want to give more people access to the dialogue tools we have developed and tested through Green Dialogue Coffee, thereby contributing to a more nuanced and less polarized conversation about the green transition.

We invite you to explore the platform, try out the exercises, and share the universe with others who also want to strengthen the dialogue on the green agenda.
