Greenland

In Greenland, the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports and the Church is responsible for state efforts to promote reading. The Act on Culture and Leisure regulates how culture and leisure activities are promoted throughout the country (Inatsisartutlov nr. 5 af 6. juni 2016 om kultur- og fritidsvirksomhed). Greenland has developed a new education strategy for 2024–2030, which has a strong focus on promoting the Greenlandic language and supporting children with reading and writing difficulties (Departement for Uddannelse, Kultur, Idræt og Kirke 2024). In 2010, a Language Act was adopted, which sets the framework for the country's language policy (Inatsisartutlov nr. 7 af 19. maj 2010 om sprogpolitik).
