31. International and multicultural NGOs

This task can be done individually, in pairs, or in groups.
Ethical internationalisation and human rights go hand in hand. One way
to promote international and ethical conduct is to work with different
third sector organisations. By getting involved in, for example, community
organisations or non-governmental organisations (NGOs), you can gain
work experience that can prove useful when finding your own direction in
life.

  1. Find out more about different organisations operating in Finland and
    abroad.
  2. Think about your values and what is important to you. What are
    the issues that you would like to make an impact on? What type of
    organisation would you like to be involved in? You can also take a
    critical look at how organisations operate.
  3. Consider whether any of the organisations you got to know spiked your
    interest. Would you like to take part in the organisation? In what role
    would your skills be useful or what would you like to learn by getting
    involved?

If you are working in pairs, discuss some of the ideas that came up and
introduce to each other the organisations you chose.
