For this project we have worked with the issue of homelessness in Copenhagen. We have examined how the public welfare system and the private organizations handle the issue, and which methods they are using. The project is based on a hypothesis that the Danish welfare society cannot accommodate all citizens, and that the private organizations have an important part in dealing with the issue. We have used different theorists to clarify different parts of the complex problem. We have analysed the welfare society in Denmark and have made a comparative analysis of the public and private efforts to deal with the issue. In addition to this we have analysed, through which discourse, respectively the authorities and private organizations, try to legitimate their efforts. Through this we have reached the conclusion that the optimal solution, within the current limitations, is an interaction between the public system and the private organizations.For this project we have worked with the issue of homelessness in Copenhagen.
