Helsinki Region Welcomes You

The summer season for international people in Helsinki will close with Helsinki Region Welcome Weeks, held from 29 August to 29 September. The weeks’ programme provides participants with information about housing, studies and living in Finnish society.

We offer information and networking opportunities for international people. The idea is to make participants aware of city services with fun and interactive events,” the organisers Sören Rasmussen and Elina Nurmi sum up.

Helsinki Region Welcome Weeks is a month-long programme tailored for the needs and interests of international people in the Helsinki Metropolitan Area and their families.

A lot of information is available online, if you know what to look for and where to look, but many questions obvious to Finns are less obvious to people of international background,” says project co-ordinator Søren Rasmussen.

A rich and rewarding part of Helsinki opens just beyond the city shoreline: the Helsinki archipelago. The services offered by many islands include restaurants, some of the most exciting culinary aspects of Helsinki.

On the Helsinki shoreline and islands, 26 public beaches welcome swimmers to clean waters. The state of Helsinki’s coastal waters has improved markedly over the past decades.
