The voice of young people and students in society<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

STTK Students actively participates in discussion in society. Its efforts to make an impact are based on ensuring fairness between generations. STTK and STTK Students work to create wellbeing for Finns regardless of their age and life situation. Working life must be fair, equal and meaningful for a young person starting their career.
Fairness in working life means that young people also have the right to work and remain capable of work throughout their careers. In recent years, STTK Students has actively addressed issues related to exclusion and mental health, for example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every young person has the right to high-quality education. Education must provide a strong foundation for entering working life and learning more. Free upper secondary education, extended compulsory education and sufficient resources for educational guidance are means to promote equality in education.
It is important that funding for the pension system is well-balanced and that a sufficient pension level is guaranteed for all. STTK Students is contributing to ensuring that changes to the pension system are assessed in terms of fairness between generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
