📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

The UNESCO World Heritage Site in Suomenlinna is restored, maintained and governed by the Governing Body of Suomenlinna that operates under the Finnish Ministry of Education and Culture. This government agency is responsible for preserving the monument and associated historical and architectural values for future generations. In this project you are working to progress the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) by protecting the world’s natural and cultural heritage (SDG 11 Sustainable Cities and Communities).

💼 What the programme involves

Suomenlinna is one of the most visited destinations in Finland and that is why the volunteers will also assist in other tasks such as visitor management and supportive restoration tasks of historical buildings. The volunteers have a chance to get to know more about preservation and promotion of a world heritage site. They aim in generating new ideas and actions with participants involved in preserving this common cultural heritage and aware how is it taken care of.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The volunteers will stay in a dormitory in Hostel Suomenlinna. Lunches are provided and the dinners the volunteers will cook in turns.
