We’re happy to invite you to the next International Café in Ørestad — a welcoming space for newcomers, long-time residents, and anyone looking to connect and feel more at home in the city
 
Our third International Café theme is: “Exploring Ørestad Together”
• Meet your Ørestad Ambassadors and connect with fellow participants.
• Discover Ørestad. Hear about the area’s history, local stories and fun facts. If the weather allows, join us for a guided walk through the heart of the area.

Join this digital event to explore what culture houses are, how they function, and how you, as an international citizen, can make the most of these vibrant hubs. Learn about the variety of activities they host and how they can enrich your life in Copenhagen.

Language is closely connected to children’s sense of well-being, confidence and belonging – and plays a central role in how they thrive socially, emotionally, and in their daily lives.

Multilingual children have a unique gift – and a complex language journey. How do children learn new languages – and how do they maintain their mother tongue(s)? What stages does your child go through in the process? And what should you do if your child refuses to use a specific language?

The Danish healthcare system is universal. Therefore, all residents in Denmark (citizens holding a CPR number) have access to the public healthcare system, and most services are free.

The primary focus of this event will be the Danish healthcare system. You will receive an overview of its structure, basic principles, and how to navigate it.

It's important to note that this event is not a medical seminar. Instead, it's designed to provide you with practical and general insights into the Danish healthcare system, specifically tailored for international residents in Denmark.

Join an informative event where we will walk you through the Danish housing market and highlight essential factors to consider when renting or purchasing cooperative housing. We will also cover different financing options and explain how the Rent Control Board can support you as a tenant. 

A roof over your head, a job and a social network are essential for a good start to a new life away from your familiar surroundings. But where do you start your housing hunt? How do you land your first job in a new country? And what is the key to living an engaged and meaningful social life?
