At the moment we have around 1,500 members who live and work the length and breadth of Finland and beyond.
We want to create an active and committed alumni community in an academic environment.

The purpose of the association is to maintain contact with and interest in Åbo Akademi University and Åbo Akademi University’s Student Union, as well as to support them both financially and through volunteering. Thanks to the membership fees, the association can organise and give grants to alumni activities, hand out doctoral awards, and support the Career Contact mentoring programme, among other things
The association’s tribute addresses have been updated to classically valuable colors, a stylistic gold oak leaf on a dark blue background and a white ribbon with a tassel. The oak tree refers to strength and reverence, they are found in many old cemeteries and sacrificial groves, as guardians between life and death. For many of us alumni from Åbo Akademi, thoughts go to the tree of knowledge, Pehr Kalm’s oak tree behind the Sibelius Museum.
The tribute address is suitable for both congratulations and condolences. They can be purchased at the Sibelius Museum in Turku or via camilla.forsberg@abo.fi in Academill, Vaasa for a price of 20 euros. You can also email alumnforening@abo.fi for delivery by post. Please note that the latter option can take up to two weeks, so it may be a good idea to be out in good time.
