:previous: it was with the Crown Prince Frederik Center for Public Leadership
From the DRF Facebook
"At*the meeting there was, among other things, a presentation round where the participants came up with suggestions on how to create more value for the citizens in the public sector.*The new research center in the Crown Prince's name at Aarhus University is an international center for delivering research-based knowledge about public management."

Fantastic!

"Today the crown prince returned home from a two day visit to the frigate niels juel, who is currently guarding a French aircraft carrier in the Mediterranean.

Here His Royal Highness met the crew, who counts 140 men, composed of Marines and air force personnel and the army. Niels Juel, together with French, British and American ships, has the task of taking care of the French Carrier Charles de gaulle. It makes the crew by resolving maritime security tasks, where they ensure free shipping in risk areas and control the airspace around the carrier."
From April 7 to the 9th

Thanks Polyesco & Eya :flowers:

Yes, DK has attached a frigate to the French carrier group operating mainly in the Mediterranean. That is a permanent attachment - and outside NATO!
It is no secret that NATO for various political reasons is not as sure an alliance as previously, so alternatives outside NATO are quietly emerging.
In the case of Denmark our army has for many years operated closely with British forces, albeit mainly within NATO.
We have over the past years strengthened the military co-operation with Canada in the Arctic - outside NATO.
And our special forces have for the past few years operated in Sahara with French special forces and mainly under French command - outside NATO and UN.

That would have been almost unthinkable only ten years ago, but times change...

That would be a nice touch. ?
I can just see Frederik welcoming the Canadian PM to the Danish island... And showing our Canadian friends around on the island - that should be be a manageable task... :D So after five minutes they could get inside for a wee schnapps and smoked herring.

- And our tireless Polyesco as now rounded her first 8.000 posts. Congrats. :flowers:
 
Thank you Muhler :flowers:

On April 12 Frederik attended'Burning Man European Leadership Summit'*in Aarhus. Not in the calendar

This year’s European Leadership Summit theme,*Radical City, reflects the growing confluence of interest between Burning Man’s temporary city, the temporary cities at Regional Events around the globe, and their more permanent counterparts in the default world.*

It must have delighted Frederik to present the award.
It goes to research into heretical conditions that can lead to dementia.

And as we all know Frederik has experienced dementia first hand. - And who knows? Perhaps he and/or his children has inherited a disposition for dementia?

Or his brother and/or his children. Seriously, Muhler...?

Lets not hope so!

However, dementia is a condition to be taken serious, especially why some get it and others don't. And why some families are more disposed to it than others.
A multitude of causes are suspected to increase the risk of dementia, in this specific case, it's genetic. And that's what the researchers are looking into.

There are no doubt other genetic "malfunctions" that increase the risk of dementia.
But so little is known - yet.
Just look at cancer. Back in the 90's (and that's not long ago!) having cancer meant one foot in the grave, almost no matter what kind of cancer. Today...
The same thing about various heart conditions. The big killer in my branch of the family BTW! Back in the 90's people died from conditions a simple procedure, a pill or exercise and diet keeps in check today.
It's medical quantum leaps within just 25-30 years.

My wife is in the care sector. And one of her more unpleasant tasks is to take part in deciding when it's time to move people to a nursing home, where the vast majority who live in such places today suffer from dementia/Alzheimer to varying degrees.
She's asked me to suffocate her with a pillow, should she ever get to that stage. - No joke, because she sees every day how it ends.

My mother was a Licensed Lay Leader in the Anglican Church and she visited the shut-ins, elderly and sick parishioners every week. When she felt she recognised a few signs, she moved herself to assisted living which, as her condition worsened, moved her progressively to more secure units. She lasted over ten years, the last five she didn't speak, the last three she didn't recognise us.

Research into dementia, Alzheimer's and other such brain conditions, is essential and grows more pressing with every day that passes.

Crown Prince Frederik participated in the annual MatchPoints conference at the Crown Prince Frederik Center for Public Leadership of the Aarhus University this morning. This year's theme is "Leadership and performance in the 21st century":
