My work involves developing curriculum-based learning materials and workshops that promote young people’s participation, social inclusion, and interaction. I primarily work on projects aimed at primary, secondary, upper-secondary, and vocational schools.
I’m especially interested in cultures, sustainable living, media literacy, equality, and educational games. I enjoy working on meaningful topics that help make the world a better place for everyone. Collaborating with different partners and continuously learning something new is both inspiring and motivating!
My on-going projects are:
- Myötätuntokeskustelut, Compassionate Conversations – a project aimed at promoting a more compassionate culture of dialogue;
- Pakopeli itsenäisyyteen, Escape Game to Independence – a project supporting young people transitioning from child welfare services to independent living by strengthening their life skills;
- Turvaa eläkkeestä Secure from Pension – a project on pension insurance targeted at vocational school students.
