| Summary: | Diakonia in Denmark is primarily performed as organisational diakonia and to a lesser extent as parish diakonia which is contrary to the other Nordic countries. This implies that the grounds for and the organisation of diakonia in Denmark are completely different to diakonia in Norway, Sweden, Finland and Iceland, including the complex of themes concerning diakonia. In Denmark, diakonia questions and discussions mainly focus on organisational and institutional approaches while the other Nordic countries are way ahead with regard to thoughts on and defi nition of the contents of diakonia in relation to church and theology. In this article I will describe the main tendencies of diakonia in Denmark in 2015. The article will show how diakonia is organised and how the relation between church and society infl uences the present diakonia working environment, the article will include theological ways of understanding diakonia and at last it will discuss the need to express diakonia in a new way – the need for diakonia as a professional practice, where the components ´acting out Christianity´, ´unconditional humanity´, ´theory and practice´ and ´context dependency´ will be introduced and commented. Diaconia na Dinamarca é executada principalmente como uma diaconia organizacional e menos como uma diaconia de paróquia, contrário ao que acontece nos outros países nórdicos.

Neste artigo, descreverei as principais tendências da diaconia na Dinamarca em 2015. O artigo mostrará como a diaconia é organizada e como a relação entre igreja e ... |
