Denmark 2050 – footnote or lighthouse?
Five challenges must be addressed today to maintain Denmark's strong positions towards 2050. If Danish decision-makers manage to tackle these areas, Denmark will be able to stand just as strong in 25 years as it does today. Today, Denmark has a strong economy and therefore good conditions to navigate through global turmoil. This strong position is a result of the wise decisions made by previous generations. However, as challenges evolve, new wise decisions are needed to maintain Denmark's strong foundation. The world around Denmark has become more unpredictable, the population composition is changing, educational and occupational needs are evolving, and new demands may pressure both public finances and the green transition.
