We all share the desire to leave a living fjord for our children and grandchildren.
At Green Dialogue Coffee, we bring together businesses, municipalities, and citizens to discuss how we can bring life back to the fjord. What should we do differently, and how can we strengthen dialogue in the process?
Tuesday, September 24, 7:00–9:00 p.m.

Vulnerable people on the margins of society are rarely portrayed in a positive light. We at Brobyggerne want to change that with this year's presentation of the Bent Melchior Award and a gala evening entitled "Vulnerable and Valued." Here, we put people on the margins at the center and honor a special passionate soul who has made a difference with their efforts on behalf of vulnerable citizens.
The gala evening will take place at the magnificent Moltkes Palæ in Copenhagen, which has generously donated the venue and catering for this special event. Participants on stage and in the audience will include ministers, cultural figures, business leaders, opinion makers, and, not least, vulnerable citizens and their representatives, who are the ones this event is all about.
The evening's program will evoke both smiles and seriousness as well-known artists, trailblazers, and personalities entertain and discuss life as and for vulnerable people. It will be an evening you won't want to miss!

November 12, 2024
, 7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.

About the Bent Melchior Award 2024
The Bent Melchior Award honors passionate individuals who, with perseverance and patience, make an effort to reach out and meet others. The theme for this year's award ceremony stems from Bent Melchior's tireless work and interest in vulnerable citizens, regardless of their background and history. Melchior always stood up for the vulnerable and the reviled.
As something new, candidates for this year's Bent Melchior Award for their work with vulnerable citizens can be nominated to Brobyggerne. Nominate a candidate for the award for this year's passionate advocate here. The deadline is August 31, 2024.
The prize consists of a specially made sculpture by artist Jens Galschiøt, which the winner passes on to the next winner as a challenge cup. The winner will also receive DKK 10,000 in cash.

Wherever people are together, there is a risk of abuse. We see this dehumanization on hidden camera shows—but we don't see the backstories of powerlessness, systemic failure, caregiver burnout, moral stress, silence, and psychological insecurity. Dehumanization is one of the wild problems of our time, and it can't be solved by shaming, scapegoating, or quick fixes.
Come and learn more about betrayal, how it occurs, and how to intervene in time. Sune Rosdahl has been working with betrayal for the past eight years, and at the after-work dialogue, Özlem Cekic and Sune will talk about the nature of betrayal and the wrong turns and ways out of betrayal.
There will be opportunities for questions and dialogue.
