Changemaker Finland is an advocacy network for youth and young adults that strives for global justice.
Changemaker organises advocacy campaigns and various training events for youth who are interested in development questions and want to learn how things can be changed in Finland and globally. In our advocacy activities, we address the structures that cause injustice, highlight the perspective of the global south and the most vulnerable people as well as role of Finland in solving global problems.
At the heart of the network’s activities are the involvement and volunteering of young people. Young people all over Finland are actively involved in planning and implementing Changemaker’s activities. We work on local, national and international levels.
Changemaker’s values are justice, responsibility and love for one’s neighbor. Our work is guided by openness of one’s beliefs, as well as party-political neutrality. In addition to openness, our principles include participation, ecology and respect for law.
Founded in 2004, Changemaker Finland is the youth network of Finn Church Aid. Changemaker Finland is part of the International Changemaker Network. The first Changemaker network was founded in Norway in 1992.
