The Copenhagen Voice invites all to join our social media
community news reporting team.
Participatory journalism from the root voice of the people.
We encourage people to upload their stories, photos, comments,
videos in hopes to bring a new angle to the news in Copenhagen
Denmark - from the voice of the people.
We encourage you to share your opinions, feelings, and thoughts,
and we recommend this as a fine format when covering topics, as
long as you make clear which information is fact or opinion when
uploading content.
Some helpful tips in reporting community news:
