India Files: Denmark - India in the 21st century
We resume the India Files series with conversations about the present and future prospects of the India-Denmark bilateral relations. The transoceanic and transcontinental encounters between India and Denmark have a long history, a relationship that is being consolidated in the early 21st century. The special focus on climate change and the Green Strategic Partnership has become the latest cornerstone in the bilateral relations. We will discuss the nature of the unfolding engagement between Denmark and India. We will also take a look at the potential that is still waiting to be untapped.
India Files is a series of conversations on policy and politics with a special focus on India-Denmark bilateral relations.
ADI will provide food, so please register before arrival. Registration is open until Friday the 4th, 12:00.
