Marie Louise Schultz-Nielsen, a researcher at the Rockwool Foundation, called the women’s inability to finish their studies ‘deeply worrying.’
‘It is not encouraging for the integration process that so many women are unable to take an active role in Danish society,’ she said.
Geert Laier Christensen, the former head of liberal think-tank CEPOS, told Berlingske Tidende newspaper: ‘We have a large group of isolated women who are costing our society a lot of money. At the same time, this will affect the next generation of immigrants if their mothers cannot be integrated because they lack language skills.’
