Organizzatore
Greenlandic Children conducts social activities in Greenland and Denmark for Greenlandic children and young people in vulnerable life situations. We work to ensure that no Greenlandic child grows up in poverty, abuse, or neglect. Children must be heard and involved, and many more Greenlandic children and young people must have an education.
We emphasize that our efforts are established in close cooperation with local authorities, organizations, professionals, children, and young people, and with respect for local needs, wishes, culture, and language.
Greenlandic Children currently has ten ongoing projects in Greenland and Denmark and is present in all Greenlandic municipalities, as well as in Copenhagen, Aarhus, Aalborg, Esbjerg, Randers and Vejle. The organization has thirty employees and more than one hundred volunteers. The projects are financed by public funds, foundations, support, and sponsorship from companies as well as private members and contributors.
