Events & Campaigns
“I See Our Futures” is a campaign aimed at addressing the current employment landscape in Finland, focusing on opportunities, challenges, and the future of work. Through this initiative, the International Committee Helsinki seeks to engage in meaningful discussions, provide resources, and create awareness about employment-related issues while empowering individuals to shape their futures.
We celebrated Vappu and International Workers Day on Thursday 2nd March. We got into the Finnish festive spirit by enjoying Sima, Munkki and a game of Mölkyy and we had a soft-launch of our I See Our Futures Campaing. We were joined by Inka from Careers Services as we take the next steps in our campaign to improve employability for international students!
