The Association of small Danish Islands
The Association for the Danish small islands looks after the interests of many of the small islands across the country. The 27 islands which is part of the association have in common that they have fewer than 1,200 residents, are not connected by bridges and do not have their own municipality.
Among other things, work is done to ensure stable ferry operations, access to schools and health services and good broadband and mobile coverage on the small islands. The association promotes settlement, tourism and business, and shares knowledge between the islands so that the good examples are shared. The Association of Danish Small Islands works for life on the small islands - all year round.
