- In Denmark, young people start engaging in politics around 14-15 years old. Usually, they start in the youth political parties. Each political party has a youth correspondent that acts like their political school.
- The school election (skolevalg) takes place every two years. 71,000 students from 8th, 9th and 10th grades participate in voting. The youth parties have three weeks to campaign in the schools (participate in debates, spread flyers, talk to the voters, etc.). The schools prepare special lessons on politics and democracy during this time.
