Education
We participate in the development of folk music teaching and education at all levels, from early childhood education to elementary school and high school, colleges and universities, as well as adult education and recreational activities. We organize and arrange educational events both in cooperation with various educational institutions and independently, prepare and publish teaching materials, and participate in collaborative projects. We arrange study periods for students of folk music and dance institutions.
We participate in organizing and developing the folk music based Näppäri courses for children and young people in cooperation with Kaustisen Näppärit ry and other actors. We are responsible for coordinating Näppäri short courses and developing traditional cultural activities for children and young people in collaboration with the Lykky Children's Culture Center, among others.
