Åbo Akademi University celebrated its 50 years in Vaasa
Throughout 2024, we celebrated that Åbo Akademi in Vaasa has been a significant regional societal actor and a important partner in cooperation across the Kvarken region and internationally for 50 years.
Our activities have contributed to the understanding of crucial components in our democracy. We work with the human perspective on societal development within sectors such as the Finnish-Swedish school, health and social issues, technology, civic and media knowledge, digital development, and lifelong learning.
The theme for the jubilee year in Vaasa was:
Together we create the future of education and science
The goal of the jubilee year was to involve the public, alumni, and collaborators in the celebration in various ways, as well as, of course, the students, staff, and emeriti. All of Åbo Akademi stands for diversity, openness, boldness, sustainability, and participation – this is worth celebrating!
