After the familiar faces, let’s get to know the first-timers in Team Dare! Our new Head of Community, Tytti Peltola, loves the nature but what is her superpower of choice?

And so the core team intros continue! Next up is Jasmin Seppälä, who is the one managing our unique program in the main event. As a Dare alumna, she has earlier shared her thoughts about volunteering among other stuff but now it is time to learn more about her.

Our Head of Program Jasmin Seppälä started her journey at Dare to Learn last year as a volunteer in the project team and ended up leading the whole Volunteer Community. Here are her thoughts on what were the very best things in volunteering + one extra for this year's project team currently in recruitment!

"Working without getting paid - why would you do that?!" was a question people asked me frequently last fall. Why would anyone spend their free time like that? Let me explain you.

It’s been a couple of weeks since Dare to Learn 2018 took place and the time for us to look back to the festivities. The festival was arranged now for the second time around, and this year it hosted 19 speakers, numerous talks, discussions and workshops and attracted around 4000 guests. I had the pleasure to attend the event this year and will now take you back on a tour of the festival venue on the first festival day.
