DEMOCRACY, COLLABORATION, YOUTH EMPOWERMENT

The Democracy Game is a dialogue-based game designed to strengthen young people’s democratic confidence and courage to take action. Divided into three groups, you’ll build the foundation for the kind of society you dream of living in. What values and rights matter to you? How will you make decisions? How do you celebrate failure? These are some of the questions you’ll explore together through a series of exercises that will also lead you around Ungdomsøen. By the end of the game, your democratic muscles will be well-trained in listening, argumentation, and healthy dialogue. The Democracy Game is for participants aged 14 and above and takes place outdoors.

The activity was developed in collaboration with young people from Ungdomsøen’s volunteering community.

Group size: Minimum 9 people, maximum 30 people

Price per person: DKK 125 for young people under 31 years / DKK 185 for adults over 31 years

Tag dine høretelefoner på og lad øen selv fortælle sin historie fra militærfort til Ungdomsø!

Lydvandringen tager dig med gennem tiden, og undervejs kan du høre om livet på øen, som det var i gamle dage. Ved hvert stop finder du en QR-kode, som du kan scanne med din telefon. Når du gør det, åbnes historien om stedet, og du kan høre den præcis dér, hvor den fandt sted. 

Start i kiosken og få udleveret et kort over lydvandringen.

Det er Lydskolen Æteren, der har udviklet og produceret lydvandringen.

The amphitheater is built in the largest remaining cannon emplacement on the island. With a campfire in the center and seating for up to 200 people, the amphitheater is ideal for larger gatherings. You are fairly protected from the wind in the amphitheater and can gather for workshops, evaluations, presentations, concerts or campfire fun, with an amazing view of the Sound and the offshore wind farm.

Ungdomsøen have four identical meeting rooms - that were once the young soldiers dining halls. The dining halls are placed side by side on the ground floor of the fortress, and they all have a large window with a view of the Sound and the offshore wind farm. Every dining room is about 5 x 10m and fits up to 30 people at tables or in rows of chairs. All dining rooms can be equipped with transportable screens, sound systems and flip-overs.

Spend the night in the old military dormitories, which previously held up to 40 soldiers in sleeping hammocks. The newly renovated dorms house up to 10 people in bunk beds with duvets and pillows. Each dorm has two showers and a toilet. The dorms have an amazing view of the harbour and the Copenhagen skyline from their indoor resting platforms, which were built by our young engaged volunteers.

The fortress has nine 10-persons dormitories on the first floor. All dorms have key fobs which will be handed to you when you check in. It is possible to rent a package of bed linen and towels if you don't want to bring your own.

This dorm has room for 10 people. You can either book a bed in the dorm as you would in a hostel, or you can book the entire dorm to make sure you have the space to yourself.

Price per person: 175 DKK for young people / 250 DKK for people over 31 years.

Price per dorm: 1200 DKK for groups of young people/ 1700 DKK for families, adult groups or business guests.
