Employment and integration are themes that matter to most members of intercultural families in Finland.
Familia organizes activities to support couples and individuals who are looking for a job, want to develop their networks or find ways to support one another to integrate in Finland. From 2017 to 2020, the Partner's Path project focused on these topics, and you can find lots of resources on the project's page. For any questions about our employment and integration activities, contact Grace Thevenet : grace.thevenet (at) familiary.fi |
