Forums

JYY brings together active members of associations operating within its sphere in forums, where people with similar roles can network and discuss current topics related to association activities. Forums typically meet about once a month during the academic terms, and detailed schedules are announced in the association newsletter.

The forums cover a wide range of aspects of association activities, such as leadership, advocacy work, well-being, and equality. Discussions focus on current topics from different responsibility areas and highlight themes that support participants in their roles as association actors. These may include, for example, sustainable development, internationalisation, communications, and event production. The forums also provide space for peer support, exchanging ideas, and planning interdisciplinary cooperation.

Training materials for associations

JYY’s training materials include guides and template documents related to various aspects of association activities and advocacy work. Within its resources, JYY also offers tailored training for individual associations as well as support for onboarding new boards. You are encouraged to contact JYY’s Member Services and Organization Specialist and share what kind of training and information your association needs.
