Grundtvig-Fondets første år

Resumé

The First Ten Years of »the Grundtvig Foundation«

By K.E. Bugge

This article describes the .Grundtvig Foundation., established in 1983 on the occasion of Grundtvig’s 200th anniversary. The article tells about the leadership of the Foundation, and how the money is used in order to spread the knowledge of Grundtvig’s ideas, and to support projects complying with Grundtvig’s idea of what is of benefit to the people. Though this idea is naturally closely related to the Grundtvigian concept of »folkelighed«, the Foundation interprets the idea freely, supporting social as well as cultural projects.
