140 Niels Brock Students Explore Cultural Understanding at Asia House

26 August 2025

Today, we opened the doors to Asia House Denmark House for a masterclass on cultural understanding with 140 students from Det Internationale Gymnasium Niels Brock.

Honar Abdollahi from Asia House shared insights from the international work arena, highlighting the pitfalls Danes often encounter when communicating and collaborating across cultures. Alexander Engel from Rapolitics turned the focus back on Denmark, showing just how dynamic and diverse Danish culture really is.

Why does this matter
• Curiosity and openness are key to thriving in international collaboration.
• Respect builds trust across borders.
• Real understanding is essential when working with Asia and the rest of the world.

Great work by our new intern Anne Sofie Yoon Persson and a huge thank you to Magnus Øhlenschlæger Madsen, Tine Hansen, and the students from Det Internationale Gymnasium Niels Brock for their engagement.

Big appreciation also goes out to our wonderful partners Manus Bell and Mads Lemmike Johansen from Rapolitics as well as Gry Blom Hempel, Joan Jürs, and Peter Bang-Sudergaard from Det Internationale Gymnasium Niels Brock.
