Let's shape a sustainable future!

As public finances tighten, you will play an important role as a donor in ensuring the high quality of education and research in our creative industries in the future. 

Cooperation is needed when solving complex problems like the challenges of sustainable development. By utilising design methods and creative practices, we bring together people and things that are very far apart and find solutions that satisfy all parties. 

Finland increasingly needs design and creative practices specialists to find common solutions to the challenges of sustainable development. Aalto University School of Arts, Design and Architecture is committed to responding to this need by radically increasing the number of students over the coming years. In 2020, Aalto trained 43% of Finland’s Art and Design Master’s graduates. Over the next five years, our goal is to train 50 more Art and Design Masters compared to current levels. 

This task is not easy because of the challenges facing public finances. That's why donations to the university are more important now than ever.
