Free Association is a UN recognized way of decolonizing and a model of independence that Greenland has been investigating since the early 1990ies. In Greenland’s draft constitution presented in April Free Association is discussed as one way of organizing a future sovereignty. Today just five former colonies have a Free Association agreement. Cook Islands and the Marshall Islands are two of those five. In this podcast we talk about their experience with Free Association, which pros, and cons such an association can entail, and what Greenland and Denmark can learn from that. Researchers: Miriam Cullen associate professor University of Copenhagen and guest researcher Ilisimatusarfik & Rens van Munster senior researcher at DIIS. Manuscript, host, editing: Marie Barse
