**MIITTIâs Principles for safer space:**
MIITTI wants to nourish a safe and pleasant environment for everyone, where everyone can feel safe as themselves. By joining as a volunteer, employee or participant of the event or activity, you agree to follow the guidelines below
*Non-discrimination*
I do not make assumptions about people based on their external characteristics or names. I treat all participants with respect, and I donât use language or take actions that discriminate based on race, gender, sexuality, disability, age, religion, or any other characteristic. I respect pronouns and names.
*Boundaries*
I respect others' personal space and boundaries, both physical and mental. I acknowledge that I cannot know someone else's boundaries without asking first. I ask before touching. I listen to others and adapt my behavior if someone indicates that my behavior makes them feel uncomfortable.
*Creating Safe Environment*
Everyone is responsible for contributing to a safe and respectful environment. If I witness harassment, I do my part to support those who experience inappropriate or offensive treatment.
*Zero Tolerance for Harassment*
Our space upholds a strict zero-tolerance policy towards any form of harassment. Harassment, whether verbal, physical, or online, will not be tolerated.
If you experience or witness inappropriate behavior or harassment at our events, please report it to the MIITTI or Lapinlahden Lähde staff.

January 2026 Trans & Nonbinary Meetup Helsinki
This meetup is a space to connect, share experiences, make friends, and build community with other trans, nonbinary, and gender diverse English speakers in Helsinki. Anyone who is trans, nonbinary, or gender diverse, or who is questioning or exploring their gender identity, is welcome.
Optional discussion questions for this meetup:
* What are some things you wish more cisgender people understood about trans or nonbinary experiences?
* What are you still figuring out about your gender identity?
* What community resources or spaces do you wish existed here?
Feel free to bring a board game, a knitting project, or something else to do while we hang out and talk as well :)
Full Circle
Full Circle is a community of practice where mental health and wellbeing professionals come together to learn, share, and grow.
âIf youâre a mental health or wellbeing practitioner who thrives on shared wisdom and community, Full Circle offers a space where you can connect, grow, and bring fresh insights back into your client work.
â**Full Circle is for professionals who work with clients in mental health or wellbeing** (e.g. psychotherapists, counsellors, art therapists, coaches, and others integrating mindâbody approaches) .
âA community of practice is a space where we come together as professionals to share our experiences, challenges, and insights, not to be taught, but to learn from each other.
Full Circle is about connection, not workshops. Itâs a circle of peers, not a classroom.
â**By registering for this event, you agree to stand by our shared principles:**
* âConfidentiality: What is shared in the circle stays in the circle.
* âPresence: We give our full attention to each other, listening deeply.
* âRespect: Every voice matters; we value different perspectives and approaches.
* âCuriosity: We come to explore, not to give definitive answers.
* âContribution: Everyone is encouraged to share practices, cases, and reflections.
* âCommitment: We show up consistently, knowing the community grows through regular participation.
â**How our gatherings work**:
âWe gather **once a month** in person, and every time we move through the same process:
* â*Check-in*: We begin by going around the circle, with each person sharing whatâs present for them in the moment.
* â*Shared practice*: One member of the community leads the group through a method, exercise, or embodied practice from their own field. Everyone experiences it first-hand.
* â*Integration dialogue*: Together, we explore what the practice brought up and how it might be woven into our client work.
* â*Check-out*: Each person shares one insight they will carry with them.
Dying on a Hill â A Philosophy Meetup
What is a claim youâre willing to defendâat least for 15 minutes?
In this meetup, participants come prepared with a clear philosophical thesis (for example: *âAbortion is morally permissible,â* *âFree will is an illusion,â* or *âArt has no objective valueâ*). One at a time, a participant will âdie on their hillâ by defending their thesis against objections from the group for a focused 15-minute exchange.
You may choose a position you genuinely believeâor deliberately take on a stance as a devilâs advocate. Defending a claim is not required. You can listen and ask questions of others dying on their hills. The goal is not to âwin,â but to clarify ideas under pressure: to see what actually follows from a claim, where it breaks, and what it commits you to.
**Format**
* One participant presents a clear thesis.
* 15 minutes of objections, challenges, and probing questions from others.
* The defender responds in real time, refining or holding the line.
* Brief reflection before moving on to the next hill.
**Why this format?**
* It trains intellectual courage and charity.
* It exposes hidden assumptions.
* It sharpens argumentation far more than abstract discussion.
* Itâs serious philosophyâbut also playful and experimental.
No prior expertise requiredâjust a willingness to think clearly, listen carefully, and defend a position under fire. Come prepared to die on a hill⌠or discover you shouldnât have chosen it in the first place.

NOVA Code & Coffee [160] - At FCED Venue
NOVA Code and Coffee is an inclusive, informal, co-working session. People of all skill levels are invited. The concept is simple, bring a laptop and ideas, we'll provide the coffee and donuts! Here's how it works:
1. At 10:15 everyone introduces themselves and briefly describes what brought them to Code & Coffee today (project, homework, networking, etc)
2. For the rest of the day, folks work in the communal space on their projects providing one another help and conversation as needed. Oh and they usually drink coffee and tea too!
That's it! Hope to see you there!
