About the Peoples’ Meeting or Folkemødet
The People’s Meeting (Folkemødet in Danish), is an annual political festival; a unique platform with open debates where politics meets citizens, businessmen, and organizations under informal patterns.
The purpose of the meeting is to support democratic dialogue, create the framework for meetings with and between decision-makers at all political levels and interest groups, create a vibrant and open framework for the development of inspiration for policy-formation, and to promote the people’s influence and understanding of society’s framework.
The events of the Peoples’ Meeting will be held in meeting rooms, ships, tents, open air spaces, restaurants, etc. The events will spread over an area, which extends over approximately one kilometer – from Allinge Airport to the south till Danchells Plant in the north.
