In November 2001 and again in 2005 Uffe Elbæk was elected to Aarhus City Council (Denmark’s second city) for the Danish Social-Liberal Party.

He is also on the board of several Danish and international organizations, and has over the years received numerous honors and awards, ranging from his appointment as ambassador for the local premiere league football club AGF to Knight of the Dannebrog.
