Migrant Rights X Finnish Immigration Policies

Come and join us to discuss the new government program that threatens to limit migrant rights in Finland. In this event, we bring together the public and experts, to help understand the implications of the programme, raise awareness of concerns, offer an opportunity for public dialogue, hear the opinions of experts and civil society, and develop a collective action plan on how to address the concerns. It will consist of informative talks and a panel discussion among experts, and an open mic and Q&A session, through which the public can ask questions and share their experiences, concerns, and ideas.
