International House Oulu, together with the Oulu2026 project “Equitable Inclusion Through Volunteering”, invites you to the Volunteer Work Opportunities Fair! This event is designed for international residents, students, and newcomers interested in contributing to the community, gaining hands-on experience, and building networks—regardless of Finnish language skills.

Meet representatives from local organizations, explore volunteering roles in English, and hear first-hand experiences from current volunteers. The fair will be held in both English and Finnish, creating an inclusive space for everyone to learn, connect, and take the first step toward meaningful engagement.

Event Highlights:

Discover volunteer opportunities suitable for limited Finnish language skills

Network with local organizations and like-minded participants

Learn how volunteering can enhance personal growth, employability, and community integration
