Dialogue: How can we increase safety in cultural activities?
What does safety and insecurity mean to you, as a cultural enthusiast or volunteer? How can we build trust together? Welcome to discuss your experiences!
We invite you to join the discussion: we’re looking for local organisers of association and hobbies, volunteers and participants, as well as others interested in the activities. We would love to meet those of you who do not normally participate in this kind of discussions: We are interested in your experiences and thoughts!
The aim of the dialogue is to understand better the diverse experiences of people living in Finland regarding insecurity and security, as well as the significance of trust in society.
The language of our conversation is clear Finnish. You can also speak in English yourself. The conversation is not translated into English. Sign up for the dialogue through this link (the form is in Finnish).
The discussion will be led by youth club activist Elsa Weckström and Anneliina Wevelsiep from the Citizens’ Forum.
Finland is considered a country of high trust that has managed to pull together even in difficult times. However, many events around the world and in Finland are undermining our sense of security.
There are new wars around the world, internal instability within countries will increase and natural disasters will increase. Finland is experiencing an uncertain economic situation, people fell that societal confrontations might be on the rise, people’s infirmity has increased and new threats have emerged within the country and at external borders.
