How Would You Like to Share Your Fulbright Finland Experience? 

As an ambassador for the Fulbright Finland Foundation, you have an important role in sharing the impact of the Fulbright Finland exchanges. With your story, you can inspire others to apply for the programs, and also help us to communicate the importance of the exchanges to our partners.

There are many ways to do this, see below for some examples: 

  • Are you interested in writing a blog post about your experiences? We have compiled instructions for writing a blog post for our website: www.fulbright.fi/blog-instructions-fulbright-finland-grantees-and-alumn…;
  • Would you like to take over our Instagram account and share a day or two of a Fulbright Finland grantee’s life?
  • Remember to tag us to your social media posts so we will get a notification and can reshare your posts.
  • If you would like to organize an information session online or in person to promote Fulbright opportunities for your host or home institution, please let us know and we will provide you with some ready-made materials.

These are just a few examples, and you can find more ideas in the module 2 - please feel free to choose the way that suits you the best!

TASK: Think of a way you would like to share your Fulbright Finland experience, and let your Program Coordinator and/or Maija ([email protected]) know.
