These statistics are scary. I've always thought of Denmark and the other Scandinavian countries as very safe.
These results don't necessarily show a true reflection. Not everyone who has been sexually harassed makes a report, or tick yes in a survey.
Every single person, old or young can do something to reduce these numbers.
Call in (a gentler version of calling out) your friends when they are being inappropriate, making sexist remarks, treating fellow humans as less than that. Don't encourage media to portray women in lesser roles. Support survivors. Listen to survivors. Don't judge them for their decisions. Respect boundaries.
