European Parliament Liaison Office in Denmark - Post A: DANISH LANGUAGE - Press

As the voice of citizens, the European Parliament stands for European democracy. The Directorate-General for Communication (DG COMM) amplifies its message of the Parliament to reach every corner of Europe. We help connect Members of Parliament to the people they represent, and we communicate what the Parliament is, what it does, and what it stands for. When Parliament speaks, we make sure it’s heard.

We are committed communication professionals coming from various professional and academic backgrounds.

In Copenhagen, we are a well-functioning team, who work with creating awareness about the work of the European Parliament and its 15 Danish members. We do everything from assisting media and citizens who search for knowledge about the European Parliament, to arranging seminars, conferences and briefings. We work closely with other EU institutions and a number of NGOs and public institutions in Denmark and abroad.
