Dodo’s activism-themed activities will continue in 2024 in the form of a new project: Towards Action starts now!
This is a two year youth project, which is granted by the European Union. The main idea of Towards Action project is finding the activist in you, environmental and social justice topics and different ways of taking action.
The project is for people of 16-29 years old and the events will take place in Turku, Tampere, Oulu and Helsinki. The project will offer four study circles and four action weekends during 2024-2025.
The project divides into four main themes: activism, art, direct action and utopias. Each theme will be in the focus for half a year in the study circles and action weekends.
Action weekends contain workshops, possibilities to learn new and do practical things and discussion — on top of this we will take into account something very important for activism: resting and recovering. This project is continuation for Growing Change-project from 2023!
Participation is for free and Dodo will cover your trips, accommodation and food! We especially want to offer this possibility to young people living further away and not having so many possibilities to attend environment and activism related events.

Art & activism Action weekend in Tampere 25.10.-27.10.
Art 💥 activism
Interested in art and social actions? This Action weekend will gather different operators and practitioners onto the ridge of Pispala, in Tampere, for one weekend in the end of October. There will be a broad selection of different activities offered, of which all of them invite you to inspect and try new.
Are you interested in art as a tool for societal change? What does it mean — and what could it mean? We invite you to join, let’s figure it out! The activities which inspect interfaces of art and actions, co-learning and alternative approaches sometimes taking place in alternative spaces, are the very core of this weekend. Aside from all this, we encourage you to take time for your own things, listening to your needs and resting during the weekend!
The activities taking place during this weekend will all happen in different locations on the ridge of Pispala. You’ll get to curate your own schedule out of the contents provided. There will be all kinds of things from workshops to explorations, from communal cooking to art exhibitions…. join us!
🫵 We want to invite especially you, who live a little further away from the center points of where it all normally happens — this is your opportunity to join now! Dodo Rf will cover your travels, and we will provide accommodation and meals. So participating in this will be completely free for you!
This event is for 16-29 year old people and we use Finnish and English!
The project has been funded by the European Union’s youth mobility funding.
The sign up is open now!
