India-Denmark @ 75: Growing Together for a Sustainable Future
26. marts 2025 15.00 - 18.00
In collaboration with Political Science Aarhus University and the Embassy of India in Denmark, we are pleased to invite you to an exclusive event marking 75 years of diplomatic relations between India and Denmark.
As two nations committed to green innovation, water sustainability, and climate-friendly technologies, Denmark and India share a unique opportunity to strengthen cooperation in these critical areas. This event will bring together experts, policymakers, and business leaders to explore how we can deepen our collaboration—particularly in the fields of water management, trade, and diplomacy—at a time when global partnerships are more important than ever.
The discussions will highlight shared foreign policy interests, the role of green technology in securing a sustainable future, and how Denmark, India, and the EU can further enhance trade and innovation ties.
We hope you will join us for this timely and important dialogue, and we look forward to welcoming you.
