Meet Daanishly
Daanishly was born out of connections made within the Erasmus Mundus Journalism programme. Founded in 2022, the student and alumni-started media company will be launched in 2023. We plan to fill the need of cultural news and stories in English, as well as a consolidated and updated events guide.
Daanishly aims to be the point of call for international students, expats and visitors in Aarhus, Denmark. Daanishly is an online magazine reporting on cultural happenings, news and people, and providing updated information on what to do and where to go. Through informing and enlightening, Daanishly aims to act as a portal through which those who are not from Denmark feel more able to integrate in Midtjylland and to feel more a part of the city and the culture.
