Ismo Leikola, a Finnish stand-up comedian is doing it all, building a successful career in comedy in the US. Ismo and Embassy of Finland's Communications Coordinator, avid comedy fan Satu Järveläinen, sat down to discuss all the tricks of the trade behind making people laugh across cultures.

Kielioppi voi olla tylsää, tai sitten se voi olla hauskaa ja kiinnostavaa. Kielibaari on paikka, johon voivat kokoontua kaikki suomen janoiset. Se on vuorovaikutteinen verkkopalvelu, joka haluaa olla mukana tukemassa suomen kielen elinvoimaisuutta. Pasi Heikuran haastattelemat Kielibaarin kehitysjohtaja Jenny Tarvainen ja baarimestari Sari Tiiro kertovat, että Kielibaariin ovat kaikki tervetulleita, ikään ja kielitaitoon katsomatta. Ohjelman ovat toimittaneet Pasi Heikura ja Tina Cavén. Kuva: Kielibaari, Hannele Törrö -------------- Suomi täytti viime vuonna sata vuotta satojen juhlallisuuksien voimin. Virallista Suomi Finland 100 -tunnusta haki yhdeksänsataa järjestäjää ja sadat erilaiset hankkeet saivat sen. Niinpä itsenäistä vuosisataamme juhlittiin muun muassa lasten sävellyspajoissa, nuorten yrittäjien kilpailuilla, Bioaika-tulevaisuusrekan kiertueella, Koko Suomi luistelee -tapahtumalla, 1917 miehen tanssiesityksellä, kansallispukujen näyttelyllä, erilaisilla elokuvilla ja koko vuoden kestäneellä kokonaisturvallisuuden juhlahankkeella. Juhlallisuudet toteuttivat mainiosti sitä ideaa, mikä valtion itsenäisyydellä voi ajatella olevankin: valtio on olemassa kansalaisiaan ja heidän erilaisia toimintojaan varten. Myös kirjallisuus ja runous saivat omat tapahtumansa. Hakusana ’kieli’ tuottaa Suomi Finland 100 -hankkeen sivustolla 29 sivua erilaisia tapahtumia. Mukana on suomen kielen lisäksi viittomakieltä, ruotsin kieltä, saamenkieltä, selkokieltä, irania, arabiaa, monikielisiä kielikahviloita ja Kielibaarin tapahtumia. Minkä ihmeen Kielibaarin? Baarin internetsivuilla kerrotaan, että ”Kielibaari on kaikille suomen janoisille avoin kohtauspaikka.” Mistä nyt on kysymys, baarittelusta vai kielikeskustelusta? Miksi Kielibaari, miksei Kielibistro, Kielidisko tai Kieliräkälä? Mitä Kielibaarissa tarjoillaan? Mistä Kielibaarissa juovutaan? Kysytään Kielibaarin kehitysjohtaja Jenny Tarvaiselta ja baarimestari Sari Tiirolta.

Rikun ja Tunnan kanssa Suomesta ja suomalaisuudesta ovat keskustelumassa maailmanpolitiikan professori Teivo Teivainen Helsingin yliopistosta sekä rap-artisti ja kirjailija Karri "Paleface" Miettinen.

How can you create authentic outdoor learning experiences? In a beautiful pine forest in South western Finland we take a walk with Dr Simon Beames, Senior Lecturer in Outdoor Learning at Edinburgh University, Simon was in Finland to give a keynote talk “Educating Generation Z” at www.Ulos2017.fi, Finland’s largest outdoor learning conference, a part of Suomi/Finland 100 year celebrations. Why do we create outdoor programs and how does the environment affect the practice we do? We wander along sandy paths and compare the outdoor learning and education traditions in Canada, Scotland and Finland. Simon has created “Outdoor Journeys” and is the author of Adventurous Learning: A Pedagogy for a Changing World.
