DSGU Welcomes New Team Members to Strengthen Our Mission in Ukraine!

We are thrilled to announce the expansion of our team at the Danish Support Group Ukraine (DSGU). As we continue to grow, we are committed to enhancing our efforts to deliver aid and resources effectively to Ukraine, and our new team members, who also join the board, bring exceptional expertise and dedication to the cause. This growth is crucial to ensure that our work remains impactful, innovative, and sustainable.

At DSGU, we are not just about sending aid — we are about ensuring that it reaches the right places, directly benefiting those in need. Our volunteers come from diverse backgrounds, including the military, police, emergency services, and private sectors. We specialize in coordinating and executing vital tasks, ranging from explosive ordnance risk education (EORE) to non-technical surveys (NTS) that identify landmines and unexploded ordnance.
