our vision
Our aim is to effectively support the immigrants through projects and activities that would benefit their integration in Finland. To meet the needs and desires of the talented immigrants by activities such as language courses, sports, arts, culture, training possibilities, etc.
Mirsal’s activities focus mainly on the Arabic-speaking immigrants, however, our interest lies in the unity of diversity; we are welcoming new language groups sharing the same values and ideas, goals for close cooperation. Furthermore, we see Mirsal activities as an anchor connecting people and associations.
