New book provides insight into Greenland's social policy challenges

Steven Arnfjord has written the book Greenland's social policies - the development of an Arctic welfare society, which focuses on the social challenges in Greenland and the structural causes behind them.

The book is in Danish.

The book examines why a number of social problems persist and how solutions can be developed.

With both historical and current perspectives, Greenland's social policy development is reviewed with a particular focus on recent themes and the implementation of policies in practice.

Key areas such as children and education, social workers, the elderly, work and unemployment, disability, poverty, and homelessness are examined in a comprehensive and analytical framework.

The book combines professional analysis with personal reflections and is aimed at students, researchers, educators, and anyone with an interest in social policy and Greenland.
