About the Danish Foreign Policy Society
The Danish Foreign Policy Society is a non-partisan, member-based NGO committed to fostering informed debate on foreign policy and international relations in Denmark. We publish Udenrigs, our Danish-language journal, three times a year, featuring in-depth articles by leading academics, journalists, and political experts.
Membership Benefits
As a member, you gain access to all our events and conferences, alongside a subscription to Udenrigs. In 2021, we hosted over 50 events, covering a diverse range of international relations topics. These include everything from large-scale speeches attracting hundreds of participants to intimate, closed-door meetings with scholars and policymakers.
Membership also offers unparalleled networking opportunities with key actors across the political, civil, and business sectors in Denmark. For embassy members, we provide exclusive invitations to embassy briefings focused on aspects of Danish society and politics of particular relevance to diplomatic missions.
