While KSO arranges a variety of events and activities itself, we also work closely with other student organizations both in Finland and abroad. KSO has five international friendship organizations in six foreign cities around the Baltic sea. We value international collaboration, and we’re always happy to see our friends join us for our Anniversary Weekend and Summer trip. Our members get to visit Sweden, Estonia and Latvia throughout the year when our friendship organizations throw events.
For more information on our friendship organizations, please contact the Cooperation Officer at maakunta@kso.fi.
