Action Projects - Denmark
Inspiring young people to take action in their communities around the world
Following the on-site Fellowship program, our Fellows work on their individual Action Project: an independent venture focused on promoting democratic values in their own communities. Action Projects are as diverse as Humanity in Action Fellows. Fellows apply their new knowledge and perspectives to the communities they impact—in whatever format they find meaningful. The Humanity in Action community is a great resource for getting support—be it with contacts, experience or good advice.
