I want all children and the youth to have the chance to express themselves both in school and in their free time.
Copenhagen should be a city where young people can grow through community and creativity.
I work with teens in my daily life, where I help Ukrainian students at the school find part-time jobs and organize visits to local associations.
This gives the young people a chance to develop their language skills, become part of the community, and experience better well-being at school. It clearly shows how important it is when school and leisure life are connected.
Tighter cooperation between schools, leisure life, and the business community so that learning and free time are connected, and more youth discovers new interests and opportunities.
A stronger collaboration between schools and the leisure sector can give children and the youth a richer and more meaningful everyday life.
This can happen through:
Partnerships between schools and local associations – where students encounter sports, music, theatre, nature, and technology as part of their education.
Leisure guidance at schools – so everyone can get help finding an activity or part-time job that matches their interests.
Cooperation with the business community – for example, internships and project programs that give young people insight into working life and inspiration for the future.
Joint events and activities – where schools, clubs, and cultural institutions come together to build community across neighborhoods.
