That is more than 10% of the entire population. The “National Partnership against Loneliness” is an organization of 90 associations led by Ældre Sagen (an elderly association) and the Red Cross. They proposed 75 measures against loneliness to reduce loneliness by 50%. 20.8 million DKK will be spent in 2023-2025 to implement the measures.
