#VOTEHOME Season 2 Trailer

#VOTEHOME Vol.2

Can you vote in Denmark? Should you? And what happens if you do more than vote and actually run for office?

#VOTEHOME Vol.2 is a limited 5-episode podcast that empowers internationals living in Denmark to take part in local and regional elections on November 18, 2025. Hosted by Narcis George Matache and Derek Hartman, each episode combines real-life stories, practical explanations, and honest conversations with guests who have navigated Danish democracy from the outside in.

From understanding your voting rights to exploring what local and regional councils actually do to hearing from international candidates who are stepping onto the ballot, this season gives you everything you need to go from eligible to engaged.

Whether you’ve lived in Denmark for 4 years or 14, this podcast is here to remind you:

This is your home. And your voice matters here.
