The Association of World Heritage Sites in Finland is an expert network and an active promoter of sustainable development. Through collaboration and developing partnerships, we work to preserve the values of Finnish World Heritage Sites and raise awareness of the work carried out at these sites.
The association was founded in 2016 in Vaasa. Its funding comes from membership fees and various grants.
