Denmark and Greenland must address the negative impact of a colonial legacy that has led to structural and systemic racial discrimination against the indigenous Inuit community, an independent expert appointed by the UN Human Rights Council said Friday. The development would represent a key measure to tackle past injustices and create a more inclusive society, said UN Special Rapporteur on the rights of Indigenous Peoples José Francisco Cali Tzay said at the end of a 10-day visit to the two countries. Inuit people comprise nearly 90 percent of the population of Greenland, an autonomous dependent territory of Denmark that was a colony up until 1953. They still face barriers to fully enjoying their human rights, according to Cali Tzay. "I was particularly appalled by the testimonies of Inuit women who reported that Danish healthcare providers had inserted intrauterine devices (IUDs) without their knowledge or consent. Some of them were as young as 12 years old," he said. Cali Tzay recalled reports of Inuit women living in Denmark whose children had been taken from them without their knowledge and consent and placed in Danish foster care. Read: More aid reaches Syria's quake victims but it's not enough: UN He urged Denmark to review its procedures for assessing out-of-home care for Inuit children and address structural bias within care services. Meanwhile, Greenland still faces numerous social challenges that relate to poverty and lack of adequate housing, appropriate quality education and scarce mental health support, he added.  "Around 20 percent of children in Greenland are estimated to have been exposed to violence and sexual abuse," he said, adding that the country has one of the highest suicide rates in the world. During his mission, the special rapporteur observed a lack of established mechanisms to implement the Inuit people's right to free, prior, and informed consent, including when allocating tourism concessions, implementing business projects, and adopting legislative and administrative acts in Greenland. "I urge Greenland's government to consult with the Inuit people whose traditional livelihoods will be directly affected by plans to expand mining, tourism and infrastructure," the UN expert said. He also hailed Greenland's extensive self-governance as "an inspiring example of an indigenous self-government in practice and a peaceful process towards self-determination for Indigenous peoples worldwide."

The Embassy of Denmark in Bangladesh hosted a five-day exhibition, titled ‘Going Green’, at Bay’s Edge Gallery in Dhaka that highlighted green solutions that can support sustainable and inclusive economic growth. Danish Ambassador to Bangladesh Winnie Estrup Petersen said that the ‘Going Green’ exhibition promotes and demonstrates Denmark’s understanding of sustainability. “We are pleased to share with Bangladesh a holistic approach to sustainable living that includes social goals like responsible business, good governance, equality, and inclusion,” she said. Denmark’s economy has grown in the past four decades while simultaneously reducing CO2 emissions and resource consumption. Thus, proving that a green economy does create jobs. As a leading nation in green economic growth and use of clean technologies, Denmark is well positioned to serve as a knowledge partner for Bangladesh in its journey towards a greener future. The exhibition began on October 16 and is scheduled to end today (October 20). The exhibition was enhanced with four panel discussions, highlighting key challenges and opportunities within a green transition for the Bangladeshi public and private sectors. The panel discussion on the first day, titled ‘Sustainable Transition & Resource Efficiency Perspectives’, led by Bay Developments Limited with participation of other private companies, discussed what steps they undertook to move towards more sustainable practices. Danish companies contributed to the discussion by sharing their own practices. The second panel discussion focussed on ‘Better Health, Better Tomorrow’, and was headed by Novo Nordisk. The discussion highlighted how better health can contribute to a sustainable society and what can be done to achieve the goal. The third panel discussion, led by Nokia on ‘Smart & Green Connectivity’, provided an overview of how digital inclusivity contributes to sustainability and inclusive growth. The panellists also raised awareness on good digital practices and the need for collaboration to ensure wider engagement on connectivity. The fourth panel discussion focused on ‘Water and Energy Efficiency for a Green Future’. Grundfos led the discussion by highlighting sustainable solutions that reduce resource scarcity and maximise the benefits provided by existing infrastructure using enablers like partnership for collaboration. Danish examples of inclusive and sustainable infrastructure were shared with the participants, who represented local investment agencies, banks and financial institutions, Danish and Bangladeshi infrastructure developers. The panellists and guests also deliberated on the need for more investment in the “green sector” to help facilitate Bangladesh’s green transition. Denmark’s leading position in reducing carbon footprints and achieving sustainable growth is especially relevant in the present context. It provides a source to learn from and apply – in particular for Bangladesh, which is transitioning to more sustainable practices. The exhibition and related events focused on sustainable and green development, digital and physical connectivity to energy as well as resource-efficient services. The right combination of green technologies, knowledge transfer, and capacity building helps foster innovation for a greener future. These are key for a climate-vulnerable country like Bangladesh for productivity, economic growth, and quality of life.

Ranging from its luscious mountains, picturesque cities, standard education system, to welfare economic status, Denmark is a dream country for many. The country has consistently featured on the top list for higher studies ranking and placed fifth in the recent rankings of 2019. Naturally, a lot of international students aspire to go to Denmark for higher studies and potentially make a career there. As a Schengen country, the facilities for foreigners in education and work are immense. In this article, we explore how Bangladeshi students can pursue higher studies in Denmark. Why Study in Denmark? In addition to consistently featuring in the overall top position globally, the universities of Denmark are also some of the bests in the world for different streams. Most of the universities consistently rank on top of the QS world university ranking. Read Free Education Scopes in Norway for International Students at Masters, PhD Programs Danish universities also offer some of the best research facilities at all higher study levels. The classwork and lectures are all interactive where participation is of paramount importance. And the best thing? Students are not required to show bank solvency documents to get accepted and move to Denmark to pursue their education. For many Bangladeshis, this is a golden opportunity to study abroad without an initial cost burden. Moving on, the country has a high employment rate at over 65% with graduates having an even higher placement rate than the national median. With excellent economic performance, robust culture, and cosmopolitan cities, Denmark can be an easy choice for higher studies and potential settlement. Read Free Education in Germany for International Students in Bachelor, Masters, PhD Scopes of Higher Studies in Denmark For anyone wishing to pursue their higher studies in Denmark, there are three options – bachelors, masters, and Ph.D. However, there are a few caveats. Let’s look at each of the opportunities individually. We’ll also explore the cost breakdowns for each level so that you can get a clear idea of the overall expense. How to get admission in Bachelor's degree A bachelor's degree is the first level of getting into Denmark through higher studies. Most bachelors require the prospective student to complete at least 12 years of education in their home country to be eligible for bachelors. But in Denmark, a prospective student needs 13 years of education - which means to study for one additional year in a local university of the student’s home country after completion of Higher Secondary Degree- to be eligible for pursuing bachelors. This might often deter a student from pursuing bachelor’s in Denmark in addition to others that we will discuss later. Read Top European Countries Offering Free Education for International Students As for the application process, it starts around February and runs through March for the fall intake. Some universities might start the application as early as October of the previous year. So make sure you’re prepared accordingly. For application, the document requirements are fairly standard. Students will need – 1. Educational Transcripts 2. IELTS/ TOEFL scores 3. Statement of Purpose 4. 2 Letter of Recommendation Read How to Pick a College or University Abroad for Higher Education That’s about it for the application. Many people wonder whether it’s possible to study in Denmark for free. Unfortunately, it’s not possible. Denmark only offers free higher education to the natives and citizens of the EU and Switzerland. If you don’t qualify for any of the two, you will need to pay a tuition fee. The general tuition fee for each year runs between 6000 to 12,000 euros based on courses. That roughly amounts to 6,18,750 BDT to 12,37,501 BDT respectively (1 EUR = 103.13 BDT). Masters degree admission process in Denmark The process of getting into masters is also similar to the bachelors. Students will have to complete 16 years of formal education to be eligible for a master’s course in Denmark. Masters in Denmark are of two types – 1-year masters and 2-year masters. Depending on the stream and major, the course duration will be determined. Read Studying Abroad: Major Pros and Cons You Need to Consider The application process is similar to the bachelors. The application windows are also the same. In addition to the standard requirements, most masters will require a research plan to be submitted along with the application. In case the applicant wants to change streams, for example, if they come from a science background wishing to do an MBA, Denmark requires a mandatory pre-masters course for such students. This is done to acclimatize the students to the new curriculum and stream. The tuition fee for masters per year is the same as bachelors. However, specialized streams might run as high as 35,000 Euros or 36,09,380 BDT per year. Read Studying Abroad in Canada: Prospects and Challenges How to find a Phd opportunity in Denmark The process of a Ph.D. is also similar to the masters. To be eligible for Ph.D. candidacy, students will have to complete 17 or 18 years of formal education based on the duration of their masters. However, there’s a second option. Instead of a 3-year Ph.D., potential graduates can combine an integrated masters and Ph.D. program together for a total duration of 5 years. The application process varies depending on the university and integrated courses aren’t also commonly available. The tuition fees are the same as bachelors and masters. Scholarship Opportunities for Internatial Students in Denmark Scholarship opportunities in Denmark are rare. There aren’t as many scholarship opportunities as the likes of the USA or Canada or even Germany have. It's also especially low for the bachelor's program with the existing opportunities geared towards masters and Ph.D. students. Read SoP for Higher Studies: How to write an unfailing Statement of Purpose? The existing scholarship opportunities include – 1. Nordplus 2. Erasmus 3. Erasmus Mundus Joint Masters 4. Fullbright 5. Denmark Government Scholarship for Non-EU students 6. The State Education Support. Cost of Living in Denmark The cost of living in Denmark is quite high. Being a Schengen country the cost of rent, living, and food are somewhat higher compared to its other European counterparts. A student living in Denmark can expect to spend around 600 to 800 Euro per month on living costs which roughly translates to about 61,875 BDT to 82,500 BDT. Even if you are living in a metropolis like Copenhagen, this much will cover your basic livelihood. But of course, it might be higher depending on personal expenses and habits. Job Scopes in Denmark Denmark offers part-time job opportunities to incoming foreign students. A foreign student can work 20 hours a week as a part-time job both on and off campus. During the summer break, they are allowed to work full time without any time cap. Read Study in Australia: Scholarship Opportunities for Bangladeshi Students Denmark has a high minimum wage ratio so students can easily cover either their tuition or living expenses with part-time jobs. After graduation, students are required to get an Establishment Card which allows them up to 2 years to get a job in Denmark after graduation. Permanent Residency in Denmark Schengen countries are notorious for difficult and long PR processes. Realistically, a student who graduated from a Danish institution with a minimum bachelor’s degree can expect to get a PR in about 8 years. Read What should Bangladeshi students pack and bring with them to Western Countries? Of the 8 years, they need to be employed permanently for at least 3.5 years leading up to the PR application. Final Words So far, we have discussed how students from Bangladesh can study bachelor, masters or PhD in Denmark at low cost or with scholarship. Denmark can be a perfect destination if you’re looking for world-class education and a secured career path. The country has a near-zero crime rate, an excellent work environment, amazing research facilities, and many more to excite prospective students. However, the cost might play a role for non-EU students wishing to study in Denmark. But if you can manage one of the many available scholarships, it will certainly become easy to pursue higher education here. Read Cheapest countries for Bangladeshi students for higher studies
