Share with Care is a cooperation project between the Ministry of Culture, Rettighedsalliancen (Alliance of Rightholders), Teleindustrien (Telecom Industry Association - Denmark), Dansk Industri (The Confederation of Danish industry) and Dansk Erhverv (The Danish Chamber of Commerce) aimed at informing consumers about copyright, encourage to move from illegal websites violating copyright rules to legal internet services and create favourable conditions for easy access to legal services on the internet.
The final report of the second phase of Share with Care shows among other things that the strategy of guiding users to legal services on the internet has shown positive results. As an example, a decrease of 24 % of the number of illegal downloads was detected in 2019 compared to 2018. Furthermore, more visits on the website of Share With Care providing information on access to legal content on the internet were observed.
In 2018, a total amount of 455.000 USD was allocated to further developing the initative, inter alia through concrete projects targeted for example children and young people.

Although the initiative shows positive results from guiding users from illegal websites to legal services there are still challenges and great potential in continuing activities of raising awareness of how to gain access to legal content on the internet.
