How do you access news in Denmark if you don’t speak Danish? There are 652,495 foreign citizens living in Denmark. For non-Danes, accessing news in English is….complicated. Most news outlets are paywalled and google translate does a pretty terrible job of translating Danish to English. In collaboration with Union and The CPH Post, we bring you The Danish Connection - a new podcast breaking down Danish news in English! This is your place to share enquiries, opinions and tales of the immigrant experience in Denmark. Hosted by María Eva, Rachel and Melissa, new episodes every second Sunday.

From Denmark to the Mediterranean: Border policy and migration with Sine Plambech

Welcome back to The Situation Room.

This week, Jonas Friis is joined by Sine Plambech -anthropologist, author, filmmaker, and Senior Researcher at the Danish Institute for International Studies (DIIS). Her work spans migration, smuggling, trafficking, and the sex industry, taking her deep into migrant communities, border zones, red-light districts, and along migration routes across West Africa, Asia, Europe’s southern frontier, and Denmark.

Together, Jonas and Sine take on the pressing theme of “European Border Policies and Migration.” They begin by looking at how Denmark is adjusting politically, before turning to Sine’s research and first-hand experiences from the Mediterranean, alongside Jonas’ own reflections from his work with Frontex on the Italian island of Lampedusa. Melissa also share her thoughts and experiences in the Mediterranean
