General Information

Our non-profit organization's mission is to promote international collaboration, cultural exchange, and development through organising international initiatives, youth exchanges, training events, and new research and solutions. Our goal is to bring together young people, youth workers and adults from different countries and backgrounds to promote cross-cultural understanding, enhance skills and knowledge, and foster meaningful connections and partnerships. By providing opportunities for international collaboration and exchange good practices, we aim to contribute to a more interconnected and peaceful world. Through our projects and events, we strive to support the personal and professional growth of participants, promote the values of inclusion, diversity, and sustainability, and encourage active citizenship and social responsibility.

Mission and Objectives

Through our activities we are highly interested to promote volunteerism in our community that benefit to a variety of causes while also instilling a feeling of community and social responsibility. In this context, we organised seminars that demonstrated how young people may use their unique talents and knowledge to support local organisations and projects. This helped individuals recognise the various ways in which they can participate.

Main Projects / Activities

- Community Cleanups: we organised local clean-up events to eliminate rubbish and waste from public places, parks, and rivers. This contributed to pollution prevention and a better environment for everyone. - Educational workshops: we organised a series of workshops, seminars, and awareness campaigns for educating young people about environmental challenges, conservation techniques, and sustainable living practises. - Basic digital literacy seminars: we organised seminars aiming to educate elders the fundamentals of utilising computers, cellphones, and tablets. We discuss subjects such as utilising the internet, sending emails, social networking, and installing and using apps. - SDGs workshops and Film Screenings: we organised awareness campaigns using social media, local newspapers, and community activities to highlight certain SDGs and promote participation. We also hosted film screenings during the sessions there were presented documentaries and films about global issues and the significance of reaching the SDGs. EFIRC is the head of the Finnish National Network of the Euro-Med Youth Federation.
