Happy news to all of you who want to read about AYY policies in Swedish or English. Translations of the three policy papers that Representative Council approved in March are now online. On the same pages you can also find some of the statements that AYY has made during this year. Unfortunately, everything is still not translated but we’ll get there, eventually. Hopefully we will be able to publish translations of all vital documents more quickly in the future.

Also, thanks to all of you who took your time to answer our language survey! We received as many as 70 answers to both Swedish and English forms and 140 answers to the Finnish version. These results form a good foundation for our work on the language strategy for AYY which will provide our employees and board with clear guidelines on the use of different languages. Hopefully we will also find effective ways to make all student union activities, including the decision-making bodies, more accessible to members who do not speak Finnish. First draft of the language strategy will be published for comments in August so stay tuned!
Cheers,
Jarno
