8M with La Grupa: Advocating for Spanish-speaking migrant women in Denmark

Kvindernes internationale kampdagThis week we have a special episode highlighting the story of La Grupa – an organisation doing amazing work for Spanish-speaking migrant women here in Denmark. What began as a small community space founded around International Women’s Day six years ago has grown into an NGO helping women to navigate everything from loneliness, language barriers and cultural adjustment to housing issues, accessing legal aid and crisis situations.We speak about the importance of solidarity networks for migrant women, why community spaces like this make such a difference when building a life in a new country, and why immigrant perspectives should be more present in Danish politics.As always you can find us on Spotify, Apple Podcasts or by simply clicking the link in bio.Remember - this is your place to share enquiries, opinions and tales of the immigrant experience in Denmark - and we want to hear from you.
