Contact Persons in Finnish Universities

Every member university of the FFA has a local contact person. These persons are responsible for organising and, in most cases, lecturing in Futures Studies courses. They also participate in the administrative tasks of the FFA together with the Board members of the FFA.

If you are interested in joining our courses organised in Finnish, please get in touch with the contact person of your university.
