Roskilde University

About the organization

Roskilde University is a Danish university that was created in 1972 in order to challenge academic traditions and to experiment with new ways to create and acquire knowledge. They cultivate a project and a problem-oriented approach to knowledge creation because they believe that the most relevant results are obtained by solving real problems in collaboration with others. They also cultivate transparency, because they passionately believe that participation and knowledge-sharing are prerequisites for freedom of thought, democracy, tolerance, and development.
