Denmark has no regular formal consultation body at the state level, such as a youth parliament or a youth council. Nevertheless, there are several opportunities for young people to engage in decision-making processes, for instance via municipal youth councils or a broad range of youth panels. Furthermore, student unions, pupil councils and youth associations are prevalent in Denmark. 

Voter turnout among young people is generally stable, but there may be small fluctuations in individual elections. While the 2017 municipal and regional elections saw record participation among 18-year-olds (75 %), turnout among first-time voters decreased modestly in 2021 (70.6 %). For the 18-year group the voter turnout was 85.0% in the 2022 general election.
