Denmark abroad
Danish embassies, consulate-generals and cultural institutes abroad have in many cases active cultural departments which can supply information and advice on international exchanges, also within the area of music.

These missions possess local knowledge of the cultural life in their areas, as well as contacts with cultural and musical life in Denmark. You can locate potential contacts in your country by using the search engine to the right.

For exchange projects between Denmark and the developing countries the Danish Center for Cultgure and Development works to implement and support musical exchange projects.
