Folkeuniversitetet in Aarhus is pleased to welcome you to an ongoing initiative – a series of lectures in English. These lectures treat various aspects of Danish culture and they aim to address people of all nationalities. Folkeuniversitetet is a meeting place for both scientific knowledge and social interaction, and is open to everyone. All lectures begin at 20.00 and last for 1 hour, after which there is an opportunity to meet old friends and make new ones, and to discuss the content over a cup of tea or coffee.
