On 2 June 2025, the Finnish RECETAS team held a symposium that brought together around 80 participants in person and over 100 online. The event successfully shared RECETAS ideas, fostered new partnerships, and sparked interest among professionals, community organisations, and policymakers in nature-based social prescribing.

On Finland’s Mental Health Day, a celebration symposium was organised in honour of Professor Reijo Tilvis, emerita in geriatrics. The programme included a presentation by Anu Jansson on loneliness and social prescribing, highlighting the growing importance of these approaches for community wellbeing.

During October’s traditional Older People’s Week, RECETAS messages were shared across multiple events throughout Finland, helping raise awareness of nature-based activities and social prescribing as supportive tools for healthy ageing.

Building Momentum for Community Wellbeing

Together, these activities reflect Finland’s commitment to promoting nature-based solutions that strengthen social connection, reduce loneliness, and support healthier communities.
