Abstract or Description

Preface From the Partnership for Sustainable Development in Music

We are pleased to present the final report of the research on Danish musicians’ mental health and well-being. For over a year, the research has delved into the mental health and wellbeing of Danish musicians, yielding a robust and comprehensive dataset for the Danish music industry. We now have evidence-based recommendations that underscore the importance of collaboration on systemic challenges, and rallying around initiatives that scale, signpost, and secure quality in this field.

The recommendations consolidate the findings from the three preceding reports: a quantitative analysis of musicians' mental health and well-being, mapping of existing initiatives, and a qualitative analysis based on personal interviews with Danish creative and performing musicians. The recommendations are a call to action, and notably, they are a call for the industry to come together. There is a substantial task ahead in reducing fragmentation within our industry to enhance the effectiveness of our efforts for those we are doing this for: the artists who create and perform the music enriching our lives.
