Besides jobs in the tourism sector, several of the events and festivals in the city utilise volunteers. The Hans Christian Andersen Festival has a large team of volunteers, many of whom have been a part of the festivals since the beginning and continue year after year due to the good conditions, inclusivity in the execution of the festival and the relationships they build. Social sustainability and social responsibility are crucial to the festival as a part of its overall strategy. Besides the volunteer community, the focus is on skill development for children and young people, bringing cultures together, school programs and partnerships. In addition, the festival focuses on minimising food waste, reusing materials, minimising plastic bottles, recycling leftover flowers from the Flower Festival and waste-sorting.
