Supporting each other.
Contexto cultural
The concept of 'Samfundssind' (community spirit) became a national buzzword during the COVID-19 pandemic, but it is essentially a large-scale version of 'at holde sammen'. It implies that the individual must sacrifice some freedom for the group's safety. In Danish sports, 'sammenhold' is often valued as much as individual talent. A team that 'holder sammen' is considered much more likely to succeed than a team of 'stjerner' (stars) who don't cooperate. Danish workplaces are known for low hierarchy. 'At holde sammen' in a Danish office means that even the boss is part of the team and everyone supports each other equally. During the German occupation, 'at holde sammen' was a way to maintain Danish identity. This was often expressed through 'Alsang' (community singing) where thousands of people gathered to sing Danish songs.
