Saariston Savotta works in the public interest of the whole Livonsaari and the surrounding area in the archipelago for the benefit of the people in the area and for increasing the vitality of the area. The goal of Saariston Savotta ry is to promote a sustainable way of life at the grassroots level, ecological -, cultural -, economic and social sustainability in all its aspects. The main activities of the association are low-threshold events, workshops, trainings and hobbies, as well as resource sharing and recycling. The target group of the association is the inhabitants of the archipelago countryside of all ages (the area is home to about 500 permanent residents) as well as people from all over the world, who are interested in a sustainable lifestyle. The main office of the Saariston Savotta ry is Livonsaari, an island located on the southwest coast of Finland. Our office is our own Aliopisto building, which we are renovating into a course and event center. The association was founded in 2016.
