Network events

Each year, the Liikkuvat network organizes the event series Opitaan yhdessä (“Learn Together”). The purpose of these events is to strengthen networking, shared learning, and the creation of new knowledge. The events always include an expert presentation and an opportunity for joint reflection on the current theme. The themes of the Opitaan yhdessä events are based on the wishes of network members, strategic priorities, and other current topics. The events are open to everyone. If you require special arrangements, please contact: jenni.rasanen@hel.fi(Link opens default mail program) (Link opens your default email program).

More information about the events is available in Finnish.
