Sustainable Social Programme

We believe that international studies are worth travelling for, yet we want to compensate the emissions somehow. Turku Åbo Summer School´s Sustainable Social Programme offers you the most interesting activities in the Turku region in an environmentally friendly manner. It is a perfect opportunity for you to get to know your new class mates better, enjoy the summer and explore the Turku region!

The Sustainable Social Programme is voluntary and has an additional fee of max. 100 euros. The finalized schedule and enrollment information will be sent to the accepted participants in May.

Cancellation of participation in the social programme should be made in writing to summerschool@utu.fi.

If you cancel your participation before 15 July 2024, Turku Åbo Summer School will refund you the social programme fee. After 15 July 2024, the fee will NOT be refunded in any circumstance.
