Lecture on the Realm Union's Past and Future — Bjerringbro Bibliotek, Bjerringbro

The Realm Union faces pressure from multiple directions: the Greenlandic independence movement, historical investigations into the relationship between Denmark and Greenland - which have led to official apologies - and the Faroe Islands' desire for greater self-determination. Added to this is the repeated attempts by the American president to create division between Denmark and Greenland.

Senior researcher and historian Jens Lei Wendel-Hansen examines the origins of the Realm Union and its current role, and offers his perspective on how it may develop in the future.

The lecture takes place in Gudenåhuset, Bjerringbro Library, Viften.
