Danish Consensus Conference

The Danish Consensus Conference is an event where a group of diverse citizens comes together to learn about a specific scientific or technological issue. Guided by experts, they discuss and deliberate to understand the topic thoroughly. Their goal is to form a collective recommendation or opinion that reflects public perspective, which can inform policymakers and influence decisions. This process promotes public engagement, transparency, and democratic participation in complex areas like health, environment, or technology, ensuring that societal values are considered alongside expert knowledge.
