Participate in a Tomorrow of Working Life Dialogue

Today’s young people are set to enter a new kind of working life as more and more people from around the world move to Finland for work. What kind of country is Finland for immigrants coming here to work? How do those born and raised here experience the effects of immigration on working life? What is needed so that people from different backgrounds can build a shared working life and society in Finland? 

 The changes brought about by work-based immigration will shape the nature of working life, services and local communities in the years to come. Work-based immigration is also intrinsically linked to experiences of belonging to society, fairness and the direction our country is taking. People moving to Finland bring with them new perspectives and resources. At the same time, changes in society and working life can give rise to various tensions and intensify social divisions. We need a broad understanding of how to build an equal, sustainable and thriving working life in the Finland of tomorrow. 

The ‘The Tomorrow of Working Life’ dialogues are part of this spring’s National Dialogues on Young Peoples’ Tomorrow. The dialogues will explore the impact of work-based immigration in Finland and on Finnish society. The aim is to gather a wide range of experiences from both those who have moved to Finland for work and those who have lived here all their lives.  We’d also like to hear about the experiences of employers and others in the business community.

Warmly welcome!
