Registration for student groups
The programmes at the Yle Majakka event are open to all students.
The event offers valuable insights into civic engagement and its importance to students in both higher education and upper secondary education.
You can attend the events on your own, in a group or with a study group. Teachers can register in advance for their groups to join the audience at the election debate. This will secure your place at the event.
You can help shape the debate by submitting questions to the panellists in advance. What issues are important to you? What should be done better or differently in the future? Study groups can also prepare questions together.
The deadline for submitting questions is 15 December. The event language is Finnish.
The question form will be posted on this page in the coming days.
